Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe signed a bill allocating $2.5 million for transit. While this is up from his original proposal to zero out state transit funding, it still represents a 64% reduction in transit funding since he came into office. cmt-stl.org/governor-sig...

The Missouri Senate Appropriations Committee has voted to RESTORE $5M for state transit funding! This is good news, but it's not a done deal. Reach out to your state senator today to ask them to support this measure! #Missouri #Transit #Funding cmt-stl.org/mo-senate-ap...

Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe is proposing further cuts to state transit funding. That would be especially bad for rural transit providers. KCRTA and transit advocates across the state opposed those cuts then and we oppose these cuts now. www.kcur.org/housing-deve...

Great quotation from our chair @tah.bsky.social and other transit leaders in this article from The Beacon about transit challenges ahead of the World Cup in Kansas City next year. Bottom line: we don't fund transit enough. The region needs a better funding model: thebeaconnews.org/stories/2025...

An exciting new chapter has begun in #KCMO. Today, @kcstreetcar.org officially opened the Main Street extension! This project has been years in the making, and took the effort of countless folks, including our immediate past chair David Johnson. We can't wait to see what's next!

Thank you to everyone who was able to attend the Regional Mobility Summit! Let's get to work making regional #transit funding a reality! www.kshb.com/news/local-n...
