Initiative and Referendum Powers and Legislative Change Requirements Amendment

BALLOT LANGUAGE

Shall the Missouri Constitution be amended to:

  • expand the initiative and referendum petition process by making it a fundamental right;
  • allow courts to revise ballot summaries through lawsuits;
  • prohibit challenges to ballot summaries after an election;
  • prohibit the legislature from weakening initiative or referendum powers;
  • prohibit the legislature from repealing or changing laws enacted through the initiative process, or passing laws similar to those rejected by referendum, without approval from at least three-fourths of both chambers; and
  • preserve existing majority vote and signature requirements for initiative and referendum petitions?

State and local governmental entities estimate no costs or savings.
