(Jefferson City, MO) The State Representative for Missouri's 117th District, Mike Henderson, is speaking out regarding the special session called by Governor Mike Parson Tuesday. At issue is the extension of Federal Reimbursement Allowances, or FRA's, which provide critical funding to Missouri's hospitals. Henderson says the Biden Administration is using the FRA's to provide funding to Planned Parenthood, something he and other Republicans do not support.
Henderson adds he feels a compromise will be worked out. The special session is set to begin at noon today in Jefferson City.
