Missouri Governor Eric Greitens launched a “No MO Red Tape” survey, asking Missourians what rules and regulations you think work for Missouri, and those that don’t.
He launched the website for submissions on what “red tape” the government should cut.
The first of several listening sessions was held on Wednesday in Kansas City, Missouri.
Greitens is asking business owners and indivudals to tell him which state regulations need to be streamlined to illuminate red tape that hinders doing business.
Linda Clifford, co-owner of the independence College of Cosmetology, said she agrees with the states required 1,500 hours of training for cosmetology students to become licensed.
She would like to stay to eliminate the required temporary students license before they can attend class.
"If for some reason something gets held up in the mail or the state board, it doesn't get its part done by somebody, [the student] may not be able to start the class. It's going to be seven weeks or later for oru schedule the way we start classes," said Clifford.
She would also advise the governor to extend the state license for cosmetology from two years to five years.
There will be other listening sessions in Jefferson City, St. Louis, and Springfield.
