HOW DID YOUR MISSOURI LEGISLATORS VOTE?
And what does that mean for you?

Missouri voters overwhelmingly rejected Amendments 4 and 5. Both measures only reached the ballot because members of the Missouri Legislature voted to put them there.

A legislator's voting record is one of the clearest ways to know whether they're truly representing your interests and values — and it's a good predictor of how they'll act going forward.

Several more amendments are on the November 3 ballot. Before you vote, look up how your legislators voted on the issues that got us here, and let their record help guide your decision. An informed voter is a powerful voter.

Issues on the August 4 Ballot:

  • Amendment 4 (HJR 3)—Citizen Initiatives: Would have required citizen-led constitutional amendments to win both a statewide majority and a majority in all eight congressional districts, while legislative amendments would still need only a statewide majority.

  • Amendment 5 (HJR 173)—Income Tax Reform: Would have directed Missouri to phase out the state income tax while allowing lawmakers to expand sales and use taxes to replace the lost revenue without voter approval.

Issues on the November 3 Ballot:

  • Amendment 3 (HJR 73): Repeals Missouri’s 2024 constitutional protection for reproductive health care, replaces it with much narrower abortion protections, and prohibits gender-transition treatment and procedures for minors.

  • Proposition A (HB 1): Asks voters whether to approve the legislature’s 2025 congressional map, which is intended to change Missouri’s representation from 6-R, 2-D to 7-R, 1-D, or reject it and keep the 2022 congressional districts in place.

  • Amendment 7 (SJR 95): Creates the Show-Me Prosperity Fund, a permanent state investment fund intended to eventually generate enough earnings to eliminate state-imposed taxes; however, the amendment does not specify a dedicated source of start-up funding, saying only that the fund may receive legislative appropriations, gifts, donations, grants and bequests.

  • Amendment 8 (SJR 87): Puts county sheriffs’ election, duties, and removal rules into the Missouri Constitution and would prevent local officials from independently removing an elected sheriff, generally allowing removal only through a legal action initiated by the Missouri Attorney General.
