HJR 176 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Proposes a constitutional amendment to change the distribution of certain revenues received from the management of state natural resources

HJR 176 proposes a constitutional amendment requiring Missouri to send 25% of revenue from state-managed natural resources (like minerals or timber) to the county where those resources are extracted or located. If approved by voters, this would take effect after the 2026 election and require resubmission to voters every ten years for renewal. Counties with natural resource extraction would directly receive this funding, while the state legislature could establish specific rules for how the payments are calculated and distributed. The amendment would replace current revenue distribution rules and need voter approval to become law.
