The Missouri Budget Project:

Shaping Policy...Creating Opportunities

Because facts should matter in creating public policy, the Missouri Budget Project provides timely and credible information about critical issues for Missouri's policy makers, advocates, civic and business leaders and the media.

Because every Missourian should have the ability to make their voice heard on the legislative decisions that impact their daily lives, the Missouri Budget Project provides accessible, timely information, outreach & public forums, and an email alert network.

Because Missouri's state budget decisions impact the quality of life of all Missouri families as well as Missouri's economic opportunity, the Missouri Budget Project pursues fiscally sound investments that strengthen state services and enhance access to health care, child welfare, education, transportation and other infrastructure needs.
