JEFFERSON CITY 鈥?If it's election season, it's ratings time.Special-interest groups assign ratings to Missouri legislators, based on whether the legislator sided with the group in key votes on priority bills. The rankings are used to steer political contributions to candidates and sway voters.The latest rankings come from the Missouri Chamber of Commerce and Industry.Based on the 2014 legislative session, the group gave 70 legislators pro-business scores of 90 percent of higher, with 18 of those legislators garnering perfect 100 percent scores.The scores were based on a "comprehensive list of important economic issues," the chamber said in a statement. Examples include votes to:鈥⒙燨verride the governor's veto of a bill that gradually reduces the state personal income tax to 5.5 <a href=http://www.buycelinebags.com/celine-cabas-bags-38>Celine Cabas Bags</a> percent from 6 percent and phases in a 25 percent deduction for business income beginning in 2017.鈥⒙燘ar employers from requiring nonunion members to pay fees for representation and other services.鈥⒙燫enew the Distressed Area Land Assemblage Tax Credit used by St. Louis developer <a href=http://www.buycelinebags.com/celine-celine-wallets-39>Celine Wallets</a> Paul McKee, lower caps on historic preservation and low-income housing credits and establish several new incentive programs.鈥⒙燗llow casinos to extend lines of credit to patrons, provided that the gambler borrows at least $10,000.Some of the measures, such as the one dealing with unions, were voted on in only one chamber of the Legislature, so the other chamber's members weren't rated on those issues.The rated votes did not cover one of the chamber's biggest priorities: expanding Medicaid to low-income adults making up to 138 percent of the federal poverty level. That proposal never got off the ground in the Republican-controlled Legislature. A chamber spokeswoman said it was not rated because the Legislature took no relevant votes on it.The Senate defeated one Medicaid expansion amendment, but that proposal lacked Medicaid reforms so did not carry chamber support. The only House votes on expansion were budget votes and the chamber does not rate budget votes.In the St. Louis <a href=http://www.buycelinebags.com/celine-clasp-bags-40>Celine Clasp Bags</a> area, only one legislator鈥擲enate President Pro Tem Tom Dempsey, R-St. Charles鈥攙oted with the chamber on every single vote rated and thus, earned a perfect score.The chamber said the ratings could change after the September veto session.
