JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — Gov. Mike Parson was officially sworn in as Missouri’s 57th governor Monday, taking his oath alongside Missouri’s other statewide officials.
“We have seen some challenging days together but when it is hard to find the light, sometimes all you need is a spark to get the fire going again. Even in the darkest times, Missouri shines on,” Parson said.
