Missouri's political landscape dominated headlines this Christmas season, with lawsuits challenging the state's new Trump-backed congressional map. According to St. Louis Public Radio and Missouri Independent, the ACLU and voters filed suits alleging gerrymandering and constitutional violations, as Republicans push to split Kansas City's district for midterm gains. Politico reports opponents seek to suspend the map pending a referendum on petition signatures, while Attorney General Catherine Hanaway insists it remains in effect. In St. Louis, a judge ousted Sheriff Alfred Montgomery amid scandals involving spending disputes and a deputy handcuffing incident, per St. Louis Public Radio and the Post-Dispatch.

The state legislature adjourned its 2025 regular session sine die, leaving active bills like SB1463 on mental capacity procedures and others on utilities, health care, and foreign land ownership in prefiling for 2026, LegiScan notes. Locally, Ferguson faces a state probe into misspending, and disability lawsuits target websites, prompting lawmaker pushback, the Post-Dispatch says. Governor Mike Kehoe struggles to retain the Chiefs amid failed negotiations, Missourinet reports.

Economically, Lt. Governor David Wasinger highlighted the Buy Missouri program's growth to 686 businesses employing over 21,000, per his office's year-in-review. Beckwood Press expands in Fenton, creating 10 jobs via Missouri Works incentives, Area Development states. A capital gains tax cut strains the budget, KCUR reports. Education advances include Missouri S&T's R1 research status and groundbreaking for the Bioplex facility, plus Wentzville's new REACH center ribbon-cutting ahead of schedule, from university and Wright Construction updates. Downtown St. Louis saw positive shifts with Millennium Hotel redevelopment and entertainment district legislation, St. Louis Magazine details, though data center proposals sparked regional backlash.

No major recent weather events were reported.

Looking Ahead, watch 2026 midterms under the contested map, a potential Chiefs stadium decision, and the Missouri Protoplex dedication in April. The 2026 legislative session looms with prefiled bills on key issues.
