The initiative petition process is a constitutional right that Missourians have used for over 115 years. It allows Missourians from across the state the opportunity to supersede partisan politics in Jefferson City and propose issues that matter most to our communities. As popular policies are winning at the ballot, status quo politicians and special interests lobbyists are trying to take away the people's power to initiate these changes to our state.
Initiative petition proposals improve the quality of life for many people in our state, and allow us to make laws that reflect the will of Missouri voters. The legislature should follow the will of the people, instead of attempting to grab power by limiting our ability to make decisions for ourselves.
