(JEFFERSON CITY, MO) – Governor Mike Parson has signed five pieces of legislation into law, including SB 672 that extends the sunset on the Fast Track workforce incentive program. 
"We are proud that our Fast Track program has been extended to continue providing adults with opportunities to learn new skills and develop their career potential," Governor Parson said.

  • Expands child care licensing capacity for licensed family child care homes; and
  • Creates a new prison nursery program that will allow eligible pregnant offenders to keep their baby with them for up to 18 months while in custody.
SB 681 – Modifies provisions relating to education:
  • Allows schools to apply a waiver of certain statutory requirements for the purpose of improving student post-secondary readiness, increasing teacher pay, or improving teacher recruitment and professional development;
  • Modifies the Career Ladder program by increasing state funding and enabling newer teachers to qualify in an effort to help with teacher retention efforts;
  • Expands opportunities for substitute teacher certification;
  • Creates a reading intervention program to ensure students do not fall behind on reading skills in elementary school;
