Demand Your Legislators Protect the Initiative Petition
The Missouri Legislature
The initiative petition process is a sacred constitutional right that Missourians have used for more than 115 years. This democratic process allows Missourians from across our state to supersede partisan politics and propose issues that matter most to our communities.
Citizen-led initiatives improve the quality of life for many Missourians. When our elected officials don't take action on the issues that matter most to us and allow us to make laws that reflect the will of Missouri voters, the legislature should follow the people's will instead of attempting to grab power by limiting our ability to make decisions for ourselves.

I oppose any effort to censor Missouri voters by making it harder to put issues on the ballot. The initiative petition process belongs to the people of Missouri, not to legislators in Jefferson City.
I strongly urge you to vote NO on any bills that make it harder for Missourians to exercise their constitutional right to put issues on the ballot.
