(Ballotpedia plain-language summary of official ballot measure) Supporters say: Supporters, including Jamie Morris, executive director of the Missouri Catholic Conference, argue: “With how close that vote was, I don’t believe the average Missouri resident is comfortable with abortion with no regulations. This is a way to craft policy more protective of mom and baby and represents the view of most Missourians better than Amendment 3.” Opponents say: Opponents, including Tori Schafer, director of Policy and Campaigns at the ACLU of Missouri, argue: “Last November, Missourians made clear that they want to make personal decisions around abortion care with their families and doctors, not with politicians.” Arguments: Ballotpedia (secondary source).

(Ballotpedia plain-language summary of official ballot measure) A No vote means: A "no" vote opposes this initiative that would require approval by 80% of both legislative chambers and by voters for legislative changes to citizen initiatives, allow courts to revise ballot summaries, establish the initiative and referendum process as a f undamental right , preserve existing signature and simple majority vote requirements, and prohibit additional legislative restrictions on the process. (Ballotpedia plain-language summary of official ballot measure) Supporters say: Supporters, including Frmr. U.S. Sen. John Danforth (R), argue: “Preserving the initiative petition process and respecting the will of the people are essential checks and balances when elected officials become too invested in maintaining the status quo.” Opponents say: Opponents, including State Sen.

I would urge those interested in reform and relief to look at ways to make the state immediately more competitive.” Arguments: Ballotpedia (secondary source).
