Missouri HB3149 modifies sales tax provisions to fund early childhood education services. It allows counties to impose a sales tax for early childhood education, with revenues deposited in a special fund. The tax can be up to 1.5% for certain counties and must be approved by voters. The board of directors manages the fund, prioritizing children aged five and under. The bill also includes provisions for the distribution of tax proceeds and the use of funds for early childhood development programs.
