State governors meet to discuss Missouri River

Missouri Governor Mike Parson says progress has been made for flood control along the Missouri River.

Parson and the governors from Nebraska, Iowa, and Kansas met in Omaha last week. Parson says they cannot let up on flood control efforts, even though the region is dealing with drought…

“I don’t want to go back to the old days, just because we haven’t had a flood and most of us in this region are in a drought so it’s out of sight, out of mind,” he says.
