Missouri Gov. Signs Extreme Gerrymander, 
Ballot Initiative Crackdown Into Law — Democracy Docket

John,

First, the bad news: Last month, Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe signed a Trump-instigated gerrymandered map into law and proposed a constitutional amendment to authorize extreme changes to the state’s ballot initiative process.

The gerrymandered map eliminates one of two districts represented by Black members of Congress in the state — a direct attack on fair representation.

The proposed constitutional amendment would drastically alter the petition process — which, for over a century, required only a statewide majority to pass — to require a majority in all eight congressional districts. It’s a reform that makes it nearly impossible for amendments to pass through the initiative process, and this attempted crackdown is no accident.

This is just the latest in a long line of anti-democracy attacks across the country.

Here’s the good news: Missourians could still overturn the state’s gerrymandered map through the state’s referendum process. As you read this, pro-voter groups are mobilizing to stop this map from taking effect.

All On The Line is committed to pushing back against these attacks on fair representation. We’re mobilizing voters to fight back and speak out against dangerous legislation like this in Missouri and across the country.
