Informational Update

To fight the new Gerrymandered Map 3 lawsuits have been filed.

1. NaaCP has filed a lawsuit contesting that Gov. Kehoe decision to call a special session was unconstitutional and thus outputs of special session illegal.
2. The ACLU is representing plaintiffs in a lawsuit brought forward to fight the power grab. This lawsuit points out the unconstitutionality of the effort as it is being done outside the bounds of a preceding federal census as stated in MO Constitution.
3. As required by MO Constitution only compact districts are allowed. The 3rd lawsuit points out that the new redistricting violates this as the KC district has been redrawn to extend all the way to the border of Iowa.
