The Kansas City Star reports:
Missouri Gov. Mike Parson on Friday didn’t rule out a special legislative session to challenge President Joe Biden’s plan to mandate COVID-19 vaccination or testing for major portions of the American workforce.
Parson told The Star in a brief interview that Missouri will fight the White House initiative on “multiple fronts.” He offered few details on the effort, but left open the possibility of a special session.
“I don’t plan on letting that happen in Missouri,” Parson, a Republican, said of the mandate-or-testing proposals. “I think the president is totally wrong on the policy he’s setting forth.”
