The Missouri house is approving a $1.2 billion dollar coronavirus spending bill.
It includes a $135 million-dollar federal grant for COVID 19 testing, contract tracing, lab equipment and data collection.
Some $752 million of it may be used in “various ways” to support the fight against the pandemic, with $97 million dedicated to child support, and $76 million dedicated to school meals.
The bill now heads to the senate for approval.
