SJR 10
Senate Joint Resolution No. 10 (SJR 10), introduced in the Missouri Senate, proposes
significant changes to the process of amending the state’s constitution. This resolution aims
to safeguard the Missouri Constitution by making it more difficult to alter and ensuring that
only certain voters can influence such changes. By introducing stricter approval
requirements and defining voter eligibility, SJR 10 seeks to preserve the integrity and
stability of Missouri’s foundational legal document.

SJR 11’s focus on signature collection, the trio of SJR 10, SJR 30, and SJR 47’s varied approaches to approval thresholds, and Senator Mike Moon’s standout SJR 10 all signal a serious intent to address longstanding concerns. Yet, the legislature’s eight-year track record of broken promises, punctuated by the failure of SJR 74 in 2024, looms large.

With only 8% of counties supporting it, approval depended on Greater Kansas City and St. Louis, allowing out-of-state billionaires to influence our constitution.
