HB 1442 Missouri House · 2024 Regular Session

Establishes provisions for the appointment and duties of commissioners to attend an Article V convention

This bill establishes the rules for selecting and managing Missouri commissioners who would attend a federal Article V constitutional convention. It requires the state to appoint one commissioner and one alternate from each congressional district, ensuring that at least one-third of each group are not current state legislators. The legislation mandates that these delegates follow specific instructions from the state legislature regarding the scope of issues they can vote on and prohibits them from casting unauthorized votes. A joint legislative committee will recommend candidates and monitor the delegates, with the power to recall any commissioner who violates these instructions or acts outside the approved scope.
