Wrap: The special session called this week to allow 1.7 billion dollars worth of tax incentives to be awarded to Boeing may have been successful in getting the bill passed, but Missouri is just one of several states vying for this same opportunity.

House Speaker Tim Jones says Boeing's decision could effect the 2014 agenda.

Description: "If it goes to another state or states, we are going to have to look at why. And as we draft our 2014 agenda, we're going to have to make our policies more similar to whatever state the project goes to."

Jones says some big policy changes may need to be made in favor of economic development, especially if Boeing doesn't choose Missouri as the site to build its aircraft.

Wrap: The special session called over the past week has come to an end with House approval of the bill allowing 1.7 billion dollars in tax incentives to lure Boeing to build in the show-me state.

One worry over the bill is that Boeing may still not pick Missouri.

Representative Doug Funderburk argued during the session that regardless of whether or not Missouri is picked, all Americans win.

Description: "So if we're picking winners and losers here, the winner we're picking is America. Is American jobs, is an American product, versus European work, European jobs, and a European product."

Boeing gave Missouri until Tuesday, December 10th to make its proposal.
