JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Missouri lawmakers are officially halfway through the legislative session, and still have an important multi-billion-dollar tax to renew.
The Federal Reimbursement Allowance Program, or FRA, is a tax collected from medical providers. It brings in more than $4 billion and benefits over a million Missourians.
Yet the legislation seems to be on the back burner.
Some Senators say they want to pass separate legislation to defund Planned Parenthood before taking up the FRA.
