HB 2027 -- Tobacco Master Settlement Agreement

Sponsor:  Diehl

This bill changes the requirements when funds can be released
from escrow accounts under the Master Settlement Agreement.
Funds can be released to the extent a tobacco manufacturer
establishes that the amount it was required to place into escrow
based on units sold in Missouri in a particular year is greater
than the payments from the agreement that the manufacturer would
have been required to make based on the units sold if the
manufacturer had been a participating manufacturer.

The bill contains an emergency clause.
