SJR 6 Missouri Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Amends the Constitution to assert the right of parents to participate in and direct the education of their children free from government interference

SJR 6 is a proposed constitutional amendment that would add a new provision to the state constitution. It asserts parents' right to participate in and direct their children's education without government interference. This change would apply to all public and private K-12 education decisions affecting students. The bill is currently moving through the legislative process, having passed the Education Committee with a "Do Pass" vote. If enacted, it would require a constitutional amendment, meaning it would need voter approval to take effect.
