Calls on members of Congress to uphold the principles of federalism

HCR 23 is a non-binding resolution from the Missouri legislature calling on Missouri's members of Congress to support state authority over election rules. It urges them to advocate for constitutional amendments protecting states' rights to set election laws and campaign finance policies, based on the Tenth Amendment. The resolution emphasizes that states, not the federal government, should determine election processes and campaign finance rules to reflect local needs. It does not create new laws but formally requests Missouri's congressional delegation to champion this position. This resolution is part of Missouri's broader stance on preserving state control over elections.
