Missouri voters are set to decide on Amendment 5, which would allow the state legislature to gradually eliminate the state's individual income tax and ban it from returning. To replace this revenue, lawmakers could expand sales taxes to goods and services not currently taxed. The amendment does not specify which goods or services would face new taxes. Supporters argue that this will make Missouri more competitive and shift the burden onto working families and public schools. Dennis Ganahl, founder and CEO of MoTax Relief Now, argues that this is the first step forward to make our economy competitive and cites population trends as evidence of urgency. Michael Kelley, leader with Parents for KC Kids, argues the amendment's school funding protection does not go far enough.
