SJR 1 Missouri Senate · 2025 1st Extraordinary Session

Modifies provisions relating to constitutional amendments

This bill modifies Missouri's constitutional amendment process. It requires that any amendment proposed by citizen initiative must receive a majority of votes statewide **and** a majority in more than half of the state's congressional districts to pass, unlike amendments proposed by the legislature. The bill also bars foreign nationals or entities connected to foreign governments from funding, supporting, or influencing constitutional amendment initiatives, with violations voiding the proposed amendment. These changes apply specifically to initiative-driven amendments, not those proposed by the state legislature.
