Government of the people, by the people, for the people is in jeopardy here in Missouri. Sixty-two percent of us voted for Constitutional Amendment 1 (CLEAN Missouri), giving it more votes than any candidate for U.S. Senate. You said you want your vote to count, you want to be represented by someone who has your values, and you want transparency in your government.
Now our state legislators are undermining everything you voted for. Rather than having open records by following the Sunshine law, they’ve simply redefined the law to keep them closed. Rather than explaining that the Senate majority and minority leaders (a Republican and a Democrat) will select the next person to balance our voting districts, they misinterpret the truth.
Our legislators or so afraid of the will of the people, they have introduced numerous bills to undermine what we the people have voted for. Tell your state representative and senator to keep their hands off your amendment. Tell them we the people have changed the Missouri constitution for the better
