The legislature met in early June for a special legislative session called by Kehoe. It took about two weeks to pass the three pieces of legislation.

The bills now go to Gov. Mike Kehoe, who is expected to sign all of them.

If the House does not make any changes to the legislation, the bills could pass the entire legislature on Wednesday.

The Senate passed the legislation early Thursday morning. The bills now go to the House.

While the legislation containing storm relief and the stadium funding both passed committee, some senators have already expressed concern over the bills.

The heaviest lift appears to be passing legislation that would allow the state to help fund new stadiums or improvements for the Kansas City Chiefs and Royals.

The Senate Freedom Caucus is demanding tax cuts in exchange for not blocking stadium funds, while Democrats on Thursday retaliated for slights during the regular session by derailing the routine work of signing bills.

In addition to legislation addressing storm relief and stadiums for the Kansas City Royals and Chiefs, the special session will focus on several projects that failed to get funded at the last minute.

At a post-legislative session news conference Friday, Kehoe also touted what he considered successful legislation, which included passing several of his priorities, such as placing the St. Louis police department under a state-appointed board.
