By a vote of 18-16 the Missouri State Senate voted to add $8.6 million to
the Senate budget previously allocated $18million budget for the Blind
Health Care program virtually leaving the funding for the program as is.This
a great victory for blind people in this state.
One more hill to climb and that is theconference committee. The Senate
version needs to stand up there. An advantage of the budget bill being
essentially done is now the General Assembly can take up other actions
like Help Missouri Vote Act.
