Calling All Crafters
Indivisible We Will Persist relies entirely on supporters like you. We receive no funding from National Indivisible and depend on your generosity. We dislike asking for donations as much as you dislike hearing requests for donations. And, every organization that is working to protect our democracy needs resources right now.
IWWP is adopting a new strategy: when someone donates a specific dollar amount, they receive a Thank You gift in return. This method has proven effective for other Indivisible Chapters. We tried it out with our IWWP T-shirts and saw positive results. Now, we want to expand this idea. That’s why we are “Looking for CRAFTY People”. We want to create unique, one-of-a-kind Hand-Crafted items.
Could this be the Do Something project you’ve been looking for?
Here is what WE need to get started:
- Suggestions for potential items that are:
- Cost-effective to produce
- Easily assembled by volunteers using basic instructions and common tools
- Compact and suitable for convenient transport to events
- Volunteers (this means YOU) willing to:
- Teach others how to create selected projects
- Learn how to create the selected projects while you learn a new skill
- Initiate your own projects independently
Ok all you CRAFTERS, it’s time to put on your thinking caps, dust off that unused cricut, dig out your sewing machine from the bottom of the closet, locate your scissors, shake up your craft paint, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, FILL OUT THE VOLUNTEER FORM.
SPECIAL REQUEST: One particular project that has been very successful for an Indivisible Group in California is Friendship bracelets with encrypted messages in Morse Code like RESIST, STRENGTH, FREEDOM, (and their most popular) F#@! TRUMP. If you have experience in making wax cord Friendship bracelets, WE SURE WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO YOU!

April Election Results
The official election results for St. Charles County can be found St. Charles County Election Authority
We had a strong election in support of ensuring our county retains strong school boards committed to education and families. All the winning candidates were endorsed by one of our partner organizations St. Charles County Families for Public Schools.
We successfully pushed back on Proposition RT, freezing of Real Estate Taxes that would have greatly impacted the future funding our schools, libraries, fire and EMS districts. We successfully voted down increases in sales tax for Fire and EMS districts.
Click here St. Charles County Election Authority to get information on all of the races you voted in.
Let’s begin the work of holding our elected officials accountable to act on our behalf. Hold them to standards that ensure our Democracy is what we want to see in St. Charles County.
We can no longer just vote on election day, we must work on a regular basis to have oversight to what our elected officials are doing on our behalf.
Go check your municipality for dates and times of meetings. Check your school board and library for dates and times of meetings. Make a commitment to yourself to engage with local officials to ensure they hear your voice. We have the power to make a difference but we cannot do so by staying silent and not taking action!
Our next election will be August 4, 2026 and will be State and Federal Primary Election. I hope we as a community can come together to support candidates that we know will ensure the future of our community. If you are interested in participating in a vetting process for state and federal candidates please let us know by sending an email to IndivisibleWWP@gmail.com.

April 2026 Local Elections!
Be certain to vote on or before April 7th
All households should have received their sample ballot and reminder to vote in the mail!
If you have not received please be certain to check your ballot thru St. Charles County Election Authority Ballot Look Up
Prior posts have shared information on this election cycle and the various items on the ballot. That information is still available by scrolling down through more recent posts to find those posts with the same picture as above.
As we at Indivisible We Will Persist are very concerned about the future of our school districts I did want to share a graph that was shared with me earlier today.
A homeowner in St. Charles County, on average, will save $122/year if Prop RT passes. School districts will lose $4M in year 1 and $20M by year 5. Please consider voting no on Prop RT. This chart is specific to Francis Howell School District however I’m certain all St. Charles County School Districts would have similar impact.

No Kings 3 Success!
Thank You!
On March 28, NoKings3 was well attended. 4,300 stickers were handed out in St Peters as a way to count how many courageous people came together for a peaceful, nonviolent First Amendment day of action against the wanna-be King and his regime who are dismantling, with cruelty and disregard for the rule of law, our democratic republic, covering up for pedophiles, choosing war, destruction, grift, voter suppression, and so much more offense against humanity.
A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action with no civil disobedience — that we did. All participants abided by the request to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values, and to act lawfully.
Organizers are happy to report that there were lots of continuous honks and waves, cheers and chants, and a multitude of creative signs.
Thanks and appreciation go to protesters who responded to Bank of America’s request to not loiter in their parking lot, and moved along to friendlier ground, and to smokers who graciously moved far away from others to abate secondhand smoke exposure.
Thanks to Gina and Marilyn and Alex and the rest of the Democracy Squad for your caring hospitality, outreach, and safety and medical oversight, to Zane for organizing the candidates’ platform and to the candidates and their reps who came, to the signature gatherers and advocates for supporting active participation in our democracy, to Diane and her team for counting attendance with stickers (4,300), and to everyone who answered the call from Indivisible We Will Persist to be Peacekeepers and medic support and backup support, and to the Indivisible We Will Persist team, Linda, Judy, Julie, Cathie, Don, Mike and Steve, for being awesome team members as we brought together our skills to organize this NoKings event. Appreciation and gratitude, to everyone, for coming with courage and joy to air our grievances and state our demands.
Please join us at Mid Rivers Mall Dr. and Suemandy Dr. every Saturday from Noon to 1:30. In mobilize we call it the Hands Off protest in St. Peters. Particularly as we approach our severe weather season, we appreciate sign ups at mobilize.us
Indivisible We Will Persist invites you to our monthly member meeting at 6:30 pm, on April 21st, in Room N, at the Spencer library, 427 Spencer Road, St. Peters. An email invite is coming to your inbox soon.
And finally, please do keep an eye on this space for more information about the upcoming national May Day event. #NoKings

Zoning: The Secret Weapon Against Federal Overreach
Miles Taylor is a former Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Chief of Staff who has become a prominent advocate for government transparency and local civic action. He is a co-founder of Defiance.org, an organization focused on protecting democratic institutions and countering what they describe as “presidential abuses of power” and federal overreach.
One of Taylor’s recent core missions through Defiance.org involves tracking and opposing the creation of “secret” or unaccountable federal detention facilities. He argues that by staying quiet, local communities can inadvertently allow the federal government to establish infrastructure that bypasses traditional oversight.
Local communities are the first line of defense. By participating in municipal government, residents can ensure their neighborhoods remain under local democratic control rather than being repurposed for federal detention without consent.
We need to work together to protect St. Charles County!

Propositions on the April Ballot
Understanding the Tax Propositions on the April Ballot
This is a county-wide measure that would freeze property taxes for all homeowners, regardless of age.
1. Proposition RT
- How it works: Locks your property tax bill at its current level (the “Initial Credit Year”). If your home value goes up later, you get a tax credit to cover the difference.
- The Goal: Prevents homeowners from being “priced out” of their homes due to rising assessments.
- The Risk: 97% of property taxes go to schools*, libraries, and emergency services. Freezing the tax base makes it harder for these entities to keep up with inflation and growth.
2. Proposition EMS & Proposition FIRE
Because Prop RT (above) would freeze property tax revenue, fire and ambulance districts are asking for a Sales Tax to ensure they can still afford fuel, equipment, and staff.
Measure Who is asking? The Swap Proposition EMS St. Charles County Ambulance District Adds 1% Sales Tax (County-wide) to reduce property taxes by 50% of the revenue collected. Proposition FIRE Wentzville/O’Fallon/St. Peters/Lake St. Louis Fire Protection Districts Adds 1% Sales Tax (Local) to reduce property taxes by 50% of the revenue collected. - Exemptions: These sales taxes DO NOT apply to groceries, gas, prescriptions, or utilities.
- The Strategy: Capture money from visitors and shoppers to lower the burden on local homeowners.
*Please note when considering taxes that impact our local school districts we all need to be aware that the State of MO is ranked 50th among all the states in state-sourced funding for schools. Thus local property taxes are the primary source for school funding.

Preparing for the April 7, 2026 Election!
With one month until elections, now is the time to begin your research. A little effort in understanding the candidates is essential for electing leaders who align with our community’s values.
Finding Your Ballot
I was reviewing the St. Charles County Ballot for the April 2026 election. As it covers the entire county I found it challenging to find those items that pertained to me. I needed to check my specific districts, so I headed to the MO Secretary of State website. I found a great shortcut on that site. It allowed me to view those items that would be on my ballot. I want to share the steps I took.
- Click this link to MO Voter Registration site: MO Secretary of State Voter Registration.
- Fill out the form and it will take you to your current Voter Registration Information
- In the middle of the page, there is a link to View Candidates and Issue. It takes you to those items you will have on your ballot.
OR
- St. Charles County Election Authority Ballot Look Up
Researching candidates:
Starting with simple google searches and face book searches can get you a lot of information on candidates.
- If you are viewing social media don’t just read what they post, read their comments. Look to see how they respond to those who disagree with them. Check to see if they respond professionally. Are they informative in what they say.
- If you are looking for information on School Board candidates check out the School District website. As well as the website for St. Charles County Families for Public School(https://sccffps.org/)
- On local elections your city newsletter should have information on the candidates.
- Once you have found a way to contact the candidate, reach out via email, phone or social media. You can also attend an event they are scheduled for and get to know them.
- Attend your local city board of alderman meeting, to see your incumbent candidate in action.
- Attend a St. Charles County Council meeting, to see your incumbent in action.
Additional Voting Information
If you have moved recently or need to register to vote: Register to Vote. The deadline to register for the April election is March 11, 2026.
If you will be out of town on April 7, 2026 be sure to visit the St. Charles County Election Authority before you leave. Absentee voting is available from 8:30 – 4:30 at the Election Authority.

No Kings 3 – Volunteers Needed
March 28th from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM
Indivisible We Will Persist is sponsoring 2 No Kings Events
Intersection of Mid Rivers Mall Dr and Sue Mandy St. Peters, MO 63376 
1251 Pundmann Parkway, St Charles, MO 63301 To Join US – Click on the location above you want to attend. RSVP via Mobilize. Your RSVP ensures you receive the official event information. It also lets you share the event with your friends and family via Social Media Links.
While there is parking at both sites, we expect a large crowd so carpooling is encouraged.
This is for a peaceful, nonviolent First Amendment protest against the wanna-be King and his regime. They are dismantling our democratic republic with cruelty and disregard for the rule of law. A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action with no civil disobedience. All participants should de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values. Participants are expected to act lawfully at these events.
Please remember that agitators are attempting to disrupt peaceful protest. While you’re enjoying the honks and waves, cheers and chants, and a multitude of creative signs, please be aware. There will also be HECKLERS, INSTIGATORS, SUSPICIOUS ACTORS, COUNTER PROTESTERS, and maybe some IRATE PROTESTERS RESPONDING TO THE ABOVE. As hard as it is to do, please do not engage! All have a First Amendment right to free speech. Some of us respond with a peace sign or chants, some just ignore the few birdies flying by.
Indivisible We Will Persist – NoKings organizers are RECRUITING PEACEKEEPERS.
The Role of the Peacekeepers is to perform the following:
- Observe and de-escalate agitators, whether they are participants or not.
- Observe, video record and afterwards upload incidents to the national NoKings organizers (link and training provided).
- Observe and report an emergency to 911+ Lead Peacekeeper via phone, text and/or walkie talkie(provided).
- Observe an incident, ask bystanders for space and encourage a chant or song to reduce surrounding tensions.
- Peacekeepers will work in teams of two’s and need to stay together throughout the event.
- Teams of Peacekeepers are asked to be trained in advance. Links for online training will be provided.
- Peacekeepers will need to be available on March 28th from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
- Peacekeepers will wear identifying NoKings shirts. An Indivisible We Will Persist name tag on a lanyard will be provided.
- Peacekeepers must be alert, should remain hands-free, except for communication tools.
- Above all, Peacekeepers are to support fellow citizens to peacefully assemble and express their First Amendment right to free speech.
- Peacekeepers will also help us disburse peacefully and united by thanking participants for coming starting at 1:45. Explaining to participants that leaving by 2:00 PM is for the safety of all. Remind participants that we protest weekly at Mid Rivers Mall Dr. noon to 1:30.
- Ensure trash is picked up.
Please reach out if you want to help with this important role.
Contact our Lead Peacekeeper, Steve Haile, at sccademidic@gmail.com or 636-248-8997

Let’s Make Some Plans!
Membership Meeting
March 19, 2026 from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM
St. Charles City/County Library – Corp Parkway
1200 Corporate Parkway
Wentzville, MO 63385
WE NEED HELP IN ACCOMPLISHING THESE GOALS!!!
1. Mobilizing for March 28th:
“No Kings Day” We are getting ready for the third mass mobilization. This event is part of the No Kings movement. This is a significant event. We will be finalizing our local plans. We aim to join millions across the country. Together, we will declare that America has no room for monarchs or authoritarians. We need volunteers for marshaling, sign-making, and outreach. We are planning on hosting multiple site events and need your help!
2. Discuss upcoming April 7th Municipal Elections
Democracy starts at the local level. We’ll be discussing the critical municipal races and school board seats up for grabs on April 7th. These local victories are the “firewall” against extremism in our own backyard.
3. Retaking our Voice:
Stopping Bob Onder in US Congressional District 3 and Ann Wagner in US Congressional District 2 . It is time to bring new leadership to Missouri’s 2nd & 3rd District. We will discuss our strategy to unseat Bob Onder and Ann Wagner by backing candidates who actually represent us. We’re talking about long-term organizing to replace their agenda with one that serves the people. While the election is months away we need to work consistently throughout the year. Our goal is to ensure we remove these authoritarian sympathizers from congress.
4. Sustaining the Street Heat
Our weekly protests are the heartbeat of our visibility. We will review our current schedule. We will discuss new locations. We will ensure we have a steady presence to hold those in power accountable every single week.
“Local groups build and wield power in ways that individuals can’t.” Let’s show up, get organized, and keep persisting.

Another Constitutional Assault
Nationalize the Election Process
The rapid pace of assaults on the US Constitution are exhausting.
Balancing national needs with what we as individuals can do is extremely difficult.
There are several organizations that are currently working Grassroots Non Partisan Efforts to protect the rights of Missourians.
One such effort is through Respect MO Voters
Respect Missouri Voters: Is a grassroots, cross-partisan movement. It is specifically designed to protect the “citizen initiative” process. The movement works to stop politicians from overturning the will of voters. It ensures clear ballot language. It also preserves the Citizens Initiative process in Missouri.
They are very active in 2026 and always need people to help gather signatures or host small informational gatherings. They are looking for volunteers to support every aspect of their efforts. Check out their website and find ways to volunteer.
If you do not have the time to volunteer, please check out the Signature Gathering Events. This way, you can find a convenient location to sign the petition.

Postcard Persuadables
What is a Persuadable? Usually, they are people that are:
- Young and Uncommitted – coming-of-age voters
- Repeatedly Disappointed – disillusioned with the same results or lack thereof
- Undeclared – agree with points on both sides and often remain undecided until forced to make a choice
How often do receive a postcard advertisement in the mail and simple throw in the trash as you walk in the house? I do it every day! However, if that postcard has a brief handwritten personal note on it I take a second look.
Our goal is to send these to the Persuadables living in St. Charles County, hoping they will take a second look and follow the link to our website for more information.

Immigration Rights & Resources
Navigating Immigration Enforcement in St. Charles County
With recent changes to Missouri state law and new partnerships between law enforcement and ICE, it’s important for our neighbors to stay informed. Here is what you need to know about how immigration enforcement currently works in St. Charles City, St. Peters, O’Fallon, Wentzville, and the surrounding county:
1. The Highway Patrol is Now Partnered with ICE 🛣️
As of 2025, the Missouri State Highway Patrol (MSHP) has entered a 287(g) Task Force agreement. This means troopers patrolling our highways (I-70, I-64, etc.) are trained and authorized to act as immigration officers during routine traffic stops.
2. Local Police Status 🚔
Local departments like St. Charles City, St. Peters, O’Fallon and Wentzville PD do not have formal 287(g) “deputization” agreements. However, they do share fingerprint data with federal databases during jail bookings through the “Secure Communities” program.
3. Your Rights are Still Yours ⚖️
Regardless of your status, you have constitutional rights:
- The Right to Remain Silent: You do not have to answer questions about where you were born or your immigration status.
- The Right to a Lawyer: If detained, do not sign any documents without speaking to an attorney.
- Warrants Matter: You do not have to let anyone into your home or car without a judicial warrant signed by a judge. (An “ICE Warrant” or Form I-200 is generally not enough for entry without consent.)
Official Information on 287(g):
- ICE List of Participating Agencies: Verify active agreements directly.
- Missouri Executive Order 25-04: The document authorizing the Highway Patrol’s partnership.
Local Legal Aid & Advocacy:
- MICA Project (Migrant and Immigrant Community Action): Expert legal defense for deportation and asylum.
- mica-project.org | (314) 995-6995
- Legal Services of Eastern Missouri (LSEM): Provides civil legal assistance for low-income residents in St. Charles County.
- lsem.org | (314) 534-4200
- St. Francis Community Services: Bilingual legal aid and family support.
- sfcsstl.org | (314) 977-3993

Martin Luther King
Minister, Teacher and Inspiration for All
These are unsettling times. The future feels uncertain. This fear can tempt us to withdraw. It makes us keep our heads down and hope someone else will speak up.
But history reminds us that democracy doesn’t disappear all at once. It erodes when ordinary people are convinced their voices no longer matter.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. warned us of this moment with clarity. He used moral force to emphasize his message:
“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.”Speaking out doesn’t always mean shouting. Sometimes it means asking hard questions. It involves telling the truth plainly. It requires showing up when it’s uncomfortable. It also means refusing to accept the normalization of injustice. Democracy is not self-sustaining—it depends on participation, vigilance, and moral courage from regular people.
This is a time not to surrender to fear. Instead, choose responsibility. We must be responsible to each other, to the next generation, and to the idea that self-government is worth defending.
We are still here. Our voices still count. And using them matters—now more than ever.
Be certain to check out the calendars on our website. Greater St. Louis County Calendar has many informative events. Ways for us to be engaged citizens. In reviewing the events I realized for the first time that Wentzville has an annual Martin Luther King, Jr. Celebration.
Open to the public, here are the details for this years event.

As We End the Year – Reflection and Planning
Do you remember the classic children’s cartoon, “Santa Claus, Is Comin’ to Town”?
Does Burgermiester Meisterburger remind you of our current President?
In Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town, Burgermeister Meisterburger rules by grievance. He criminalizes toys. Outlaws joy and generosity. He rules by might. He mistakes control for leadership.
It is a cartoon – but the warning is real.
Burgermeister Meisterburger is a classic authoritarian:
- Thin-skinned
- Obsessed with loyalty
- Punishes dissent
- Hates symbols that unite people without him at the center
As we head into a new year—and toward the 2026 elections—we face a simple question:
Do we keep repeating the cartoon villain’s playbook? Or do we choose leaders who govern with competence, fairness, and care for real people?
In 2026 Let’s bring joy back to Sombertown…by giving a little bit of ourselves!
Why 2026 Matters
Midterm elections decide more than seats. They decide:
- Whether economic policy lowers costs or raises them
- Whether democracy is protected or eroded
- Whether politics is about solutions or scapegoats
Take Action in 2026
- Register & verify your voter status Elections&Voting

Why Regulation Will Make Democrats Popular Again
Regulation isn’t just a burden — it can protect consumers, workers, and fair competition.
I strongly encourage you to click on the link to view the entire episode. I wanted to give a summary of the Molly Jong-Fast “Project 2029: Why Regulation Will Make Democrats Popular Again.” This is Episode 2 of the Project 2029: A Reimagining series.
📹 Overview
In the second episode, journalist Molly Jong-Fast explains how regulation and antitrust enforcement are crucial tools. These tools are important for defending the American public against unchecked private power. She and her guests show how regulation helps guarantee fairness, protects individual rights and preserves economic freedom.
📌 Key Points from the Video/Discussion
• Regulation as a positive tool: Voters don’t hate government. They hate feeling unprotected. When policy clearly improves daily life and someone takes credit for it political popularity follows. Regulation isn’t just a burden — it can protect consumers, workers, and fair competition. When people see tangible benefits (like more fair markets and protections), it can boost approval for the party that champions those policies
• Antitrust enforcement matters: Breaking up monopolies and enforcing antitrust laws helps smaller businesses and consumers. Antitrust enforcement lowers prices, raises wages, protects democracy, and keeps the economy working for people instead of monopolies.
• Political strategy angle: Instead of shying away from regulation as “too bureaucratic,” Democrats should embrace their role. They can shape fair markets and economic safeguards. This approach can improve their political standing leading up to 2029. Targeted action that brings meaningful benefits to Americans will result in a stronger coalition.
🎯 Central Message
Regulation makes Democrats popular when it’s framed as protection from powerful interests. It becomes more popular when it is felt in everyday life. It should not be viewed as abstract governance. -
Super Candidate Kickoff

Understanding Our Democracy
US Democracy is shaped by our culture and history…..
A quick 10 minute video produced by PBS on What America’s Founding Fathers REALLY Meant | Civics Made Easy
Our Democracy is often celebrated for its stability and the rights it provides but those very same features can fuel gridlock, minority rule and institutional stagnation. Understanding our Democracy is an important step in understanding what changes we can make to improve our government.

Campaign Finance Reform
Money and Corruption in Politics – Silencing the voice of the Voter
Before Citizens United, there were limits on how much corporations and unions could spend on election ads. After the ruling, those limits disappeared. Outside groups can now pour millions into TV ads, online ads, and mailers.
While I strongly encourage you to click on the link to view the entire episode, I wanted to give a summary of the Molly Jong-Fast “Project 2029: Campaign Finance Reform Comes First” YouTube video (Episode 1 of the Project 2029: A Reimagining series):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wLz2BzCx1ZY
📹 Overview
In the premiere episode, journalist Molly Jong-Fast frames campaign finance reform as the most urgent first step to fixing American politics. She argues that money’s overwhelming influence in elections — especially since the Citizens United decision — has warped priorities in Washington and undermined democracy.
📌 Key Points from the Video/Discussion
• Campaign finance reform must come first: Jong-Fast explains that without addressing how money flows into politics, it’s hard to solve other problems — from policy gridlock to policymaking that favors wealthy donors over voters.
• Citizens United’s impact: The episode highlights how the Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United ruling opened the floodgates for unlimited spending in elections by corporations and wealthy interests, shifting power away from ordinary voters.
• Experts featured: The video includes voices like Harvard’s Lawrence Lessig, Tiffany Muller of End Citizens United, Michael Waldman of the Brennan Center for Justice, and other campaign finance reform advocates. They explain how big money influences policy and why reform is essential.
• Call to action: Beyond diagnosing the problem, the video discusses possible paths for reform — both at the federal and state levels — and encourages viewer engagement and activism around those solutions.
🎯 Central Message
Money in politics isn’t just a side issue — it’s the first problem to solve if the U.S. is going to restore public trust and make government accountable to everyday people rather than powerful donors.Please, take the time to view the entire episode and be certain to ask Candidates what they intend to do to reform the harm caused by Citizens United.

Missouri Republican calls in ICE to interfere with ballot initiative
BEWARE – Democracy dies in the darkness: Missouri AG calls for ICE to stop United States citizens from collecting signatures to put the illegal gerrymandering map on the ballot.
The Attorney General is NOT doing an investigation herself but reaching out to ICE to scare MO Citizens! This is truly autocracy at work in our own state.

MO Petitions to Sign for Promoting Democracy
Missouri currently has several significant petitions circulating that will shape the 2026 ballot and state politics.
Please, look for the tent at the Weekly Protest at Mid Rivers Mall Drive and Sue Mandy to sign these critical petitions.
For Additional Information click on the link provided.
Active Petition Campaigns
People Not Politicians – Referendum on Redistricting
This petition seeks to overturn the new congressional map passed by the Missouri legislature in September 2025. The campaign needs to collect approximately 117,000 signatures by December 11, 2025, to place the measure on the November 2026 ballot. If successful, voters would decide whether to accept or reject the gerrymandered map.
Respect Missouri Voters – Constitutional Amendment to Protect Initiative Petition Process
This petition aims to protect citizens’ ability to use the initiative process and prevent the legislature from overturning voter-approved measures. The amendment would expand the initiative and referendum petition process by making it a fundamental right, allow courts to revise ballot summaries through lawsuits, prohibit the legislature from weakening initiative powers, and prevent the legislature from repealing laws enacted through voter initiatives without 80% approval from both chambers. The campaign needs approximately 300,000 signatures by December 31 to qualify for the 2026 ballot. This effort directly counters a GOP-backed constitutional amendment (HJR3) that would require citizen-led initiatives to pass not only statewide but also in all eight congressional districts—a requirement that would not apply to amendments proposed by the legislature itself.
MO for LGBTQ – Marriage Rights and Civil Rights Petitions
This organization is collecting signatures for two separate petitions. One would amend the state constitution to define marriage as “between two consenting adults,” protecting LGBTQ+ marriage rights if the federal Supreme Court ruling is overturned. The second petition would expand Missouri’s anti-discrimination laws to include sexual orientation, gender identity, pregnancy, and marital status.
Missouri Right to Education Initiative
This petition seeks to make education a fundamental right for Missouri children and require the state to maintain “adequate, thorough, and uniform high quality free public schools” in every district. The measure aims to address inequality between school districts across the state.

Updates on MO Gerrymandering and Citizen Initiative Efforts
STOP – MO Gerrymandering Efforts
Now that the Gerrymandered maps are complete, the citizens of MO have 90 days to gather 115K signatures to force a referendum and repeal House Bill 1. People Not Politicians has launched the effort to gather the necessary signatures.
If you want to be part of gathering signatures to stop MO Gerrymandering you can sign up here:
If signature gathering is not your thing but you want to contribute check out their website by clicking the logo above. Also be sure to sign the petition to get the referendum on the ballot whenever you are presented with the opportunity.
Citizen Initiative Effort to Stop Overturning Votes
Respect MO Voter’s Organization officially launched their efforts to gather 300K signatures across the state of MO to get a ballot initiative in front of MO Voters in Nov 2026 to prevent the legislature from overturning MO election results.
Click the logo above to check out their website and find a way to get involved. They too need people to collect signatures. Again, if you see someone collecting signatures for this effort take the time to sign, so MO voters can be heard.
Informational Update
To fight the new Gerrymandered Map 3 lawsuits have been filed.
- NaaCP has filed a lawsuit contesting that Gov. Kehoe decision to call a special session was unconstitutional and thus outputs of special session illegal.
- 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.
- 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.
