Missouri Governor Vetoes School Surveillance Tech Bill

Missouri Governor Mike Parson vetoed a bill that would have funded a $2.5 million initiative for video surveillance software designed to detect guns on school campuses. The bill, supported by ZeroEyes, was part of a larger state budget, but Parson cited concerns over state procurement laws and the need to cut spending. ZeroEyes has successfully lobbied for similar legislation in other states, using AI-powered cameras to identify firearms and notify authorities. Despite the veto, the technology continues to be adopted in other areas, including municipal buildings and public parks, showcasing its potential for enhancing public safety.
