(JEFFERSON CITY, MO) – Today, Governor Mike Parson signed Executive Order 20-21 continuing the Missouri Justice Reinvestment Executive Oversight Council through December 31, 2023.
“The Missouri Justice Reinvestment Executive Oversight Council plays an important role in meeting justice reinvestment goals and advising the Governor’s Office on implementation of the Missouri Justice Reinvestment Act,” Governor Parson said. “Executive Order 20-21 will allow the Council to continue its work in fostering sustainability of all justice reinvestment efforts.”
