HB 1862 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Modifies provisions for the Missouri ethics commission

HB 1862 replaces Missouri's existing ethics commission rules with new provisions. It establishes a six-member bipartisan commission appointed by the governor from lists submitted by party committees, requiring nominees to disclose financial interests and political contributions. Members serve four-year terms with strict party balance rules (no more than three from one party, one per congressional district) and cannot serve more than one full term. The bill also sets term expiration dates and prohibits interference with the commission's independent operations.
