HB 427 -- Missouri Women's Council Sponsor: Ruestman Currently, the Missouri Women's Council is required to prepare a state plan and gather annual reports from numerous state departments. This bill eliminates these requirements as well as one of two duplicate provisions which authorize a special license plate bearing the council's emblem and the phrase "BREAST CANCER AWARENESS." The bill also modifies the council's mission by requiring it to initiate programs to support women balancing work and family, operating a home-based business, working part-time from home, and promoting workforce readiness skills and healthy lifestyles for unemployed women.Copyright (c) Missouri House of Representatives
