We welcome Sandra Richason as our new Executive Director, replacing the retiring Executive Director Jean Dugan. Sandra also serves as Executive Director of the Missouri League.
The severe loss of trees during the May 16th tornado did long-term damage to our region due to the “urban heat island effect.” Our Environmental Quality and Climate Change Committee explains.
In 2024 the League supported Prop A for healthy families and it was supported by 57 percent of voters in November. The proposition included mandatory sick leave and an increase in the minimum wage.
The Environmental Quality and Climate Change Committee has been publishing an environmental tip in each issue of our former newsletter, the In League Reporter.
