US EditionMissouri Senate Backs Aid for Tornado Victims and Kansas City Chiefs and Royals
- Early on June 5, 2025, the Missouri Senate approved Senate Bill 3, aimed at providing disaster relief funding and financial incentives to help keep the Chiefs and Royals based in Missouri.
- This legislation responds to Kansas' expiring STAR bond program offering up to 70% funding to lure the teams, with Missouri matching up to 50% of stadium costs.
- The bill includes over $100 million for tornado aid in St. Louis, tax incentives for stadium projects costing at least $500 million, and bonding mechanisms for state funding.
- The Senate approved SB 3 by a 19-13 vote, and Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas thanked senators for supporting disaster relief, education, health, and sports retention efforts.
- The bill now moves to the Missouri House, while the Chiefs face a late June deadline to accept Kansas' offer, leaving their Missouri future uncertain despite legislative efforts.
