Missouri Senate Takes on Initiative Petition Reform: A Deep Dive into SJR 11, SJR 10, SJR 30, and SJR 47

The Missouri Senate’s push for IP Reform this session—through SJR 11, SJR 10, SJR 30, and SJR 47—offers a chance to redefine how citizens engage with their government. 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.
