HJR 93 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Proposes a constitutional amendment that removes the restriction on persons judged incapacitated being able to vote

HJR 93 proposes a constitutional amendment to remove a Missouri voting restriction for individuals declared mentally incapacitated by a court. Currently, Missouri law bars voting for people with court-appointed guardians for mental incapacity or those involuntarily confined in mental institutions. The bill would delete this exclusion from the state constitution, allowing these individuals to vote if otherwise eligible under standard registration and residency rules. This change would directly affect Missouri residents under court guardianship for mental health reasons.
