HJR 136 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Proposes a constitutional amendment that modifies provisions for continuing committees

HJR 136 proposes a constitutional amendment that would restrict political committees (including PACs) from including a candidate's name or image in advertisements or printed materials they fund. It requires such committees to issue a retraction matching the violating ad's cost, size, and placement if they violate this rule. The amendment directly affects political committees that fund election-related communications, banning candidate mentions in their paid ads while allowing other forms of support. This is a proposed constitutional change, not a current law, and would require voter approval in Missouri. (Note: The bill title incorrectly references "continuing committees" as a procedural matter, but the actual text addresses campaign finance rules.)
