Gov. Mike Kehoe will be in Ashland for the Southern Boone Economic Development Council's Leader Breakfast Thursday morning.

A social media post from the Boone Economic Development Council says Kehoe will be a keynote speaker for the 7:30 a.m. breakfast at 511 Optimist Dr. in Ashland and will give updates from across the region. The breakfast will also include updates from Boone County, Ashland and REDI.

This comes as a resolution to put a measure to eliminate the income tax and allow new sales taxes to appear before voters on the August or November ballot.

The Missouri House on Tuesday approved the measure with a 95-59 vote. The Senate passed the measure last week, known as House Joint Resolutions 173 and 174.
