Vote NO on Missouri Amendment 5 Eliminating the state income tax may sound appealing, but Amendment 5 would give the legislature sweeping new power to replace that revenue by expanding taxes on goods and services. Everyday expenses that many Missourians currently face with little or no sales tax—vehicle repairs, home improvements, plumbing and electrical work, lawn care, professional services, delivery fees, streaming subscriptions, and similar purchases—could become significantly more expensive. The real risk is not the end of the income tax. It is what takes its place. Once this authority is written into the Constitution, future lawmakers could broaden the sales-tax base without voters knowing in advance which items will be taxed or how high those rates may climb. Any savings from lower income taxes could quickly disappear through higher costs on the services and repairs people still must pay for. Retirees, disabled veterans, and working families would feel this impact most, because these are not optional expenses. Missouri should not remove one tax without first presenting a clear, complete, and transparent plan for what replaces it. Vote NO on Amendment 5 so that lower income taxes do not become an open door to higher taxes on nearly everything we buy and use. Vote NO on Missouri Amendment 4 Amendment 4 would allow a single congressional district to defeat a statewide constitutional amendment even when a majority of Missouri voters approve it. A proposal could win 60 percent of the statewide vote and still fail if it falls just short in one district. That arrangement hands a minority of voters an effective veto over the clear will of the majority. Every Missourian’s vote should carry equal weight—whether that voter lives in Kansas City, St. Louis, Columbia, Springfield, Moberly, or a rural community. Changes to our Constitution should be decided by the total number of voters across the state, not by giving any one district the power to block the outcome. Vote NO on Amendment 4 to protect majority rule and ensure that every Missouri vote counts equally.

Doug Richey@DougRichey

What more can be reasonably expected by conservative/Republican citizens when working toward the needed tax reform of Amendment 5? - Trump White House economists are supporting. - Conservative tax economists are supporting. - Conservative fiscal activists are supporting. - Consistent conservative electeds are supporting. - Conservatives, libertarians, and MAGA are on the same page in support. Amendment 5 is the culmination of over two decades of discussion, interest, and best practice consideration. During that time, the Left has vigorously pressed to maintain/expand their progressive/socialistic/means-testing tax philosophy. It’s no surprise that they are fighting with the same vigor to maintain the status quo. “But wait, why don’t we have final legislative details to review before we vote on a constitutional amendment?” Did the US Congress have finalized legislative details for the states, prior to the ratification of the US Constitution? No. Why? Because the purpose of the Constitution is to create governing parameters. The legislature works within those parameters. Mo’s Amendment 5 obviously comes before the people before the General Assembly acts according to its language. To my fellow Republicans who are concerned about this being a “bait and switch,” or the precursor to a burdensome tax increase, ask yourselves why Democrat activists are telling their supporters that this measure is going to CUT government funding? They know that this measure will restrain government, which is the last thing they want. They’ve creatively imbedded themselves into the Republican conversation by trying to scare us with INCREASED taxes. They’re doing this to protect the status quo. Don’t be fooled. Is tax policy complicated? Yes. Those who benefit from the Left’s tax philosophy are taking advantage of the complications, while they spread misinformation. Does Amendment 5 put important protections in place for the benefit of tax payers as it also produces a thoughtful path toward wise tax policy? Yes!

I see we have once again entered political silly season in Missouri. Ten more days, folks, and all those ugly attacks and psychotic meltdowns will fade into the ether. What a tradition. Notice which political pros keep their heads about them. Composure under stress is rare.

If you're a fiscal conservative, Amendment 5 is an easy call. It ratchets Missouri's income tax down as the economy grows, on the path to zero. Keep more of what you earn. Vote YES on 5 by August 4th.

A proposal could win 60 percent of the statewide vote and still fail if it falls just short in one district. That arrangement hands a minority of voters an effective veto over the clear will of the majority. Every Missourian’s vote should carry equal weight—whether that voter lives in Kansas City, St. Louis, Columbia, Springfield, Moberly, or a rural community. Changes to our Constitution should be decided by the total number of voters across the state, not by giving any one district the power to block the outcome. Vote NO on Amendment 4 to protect majority rule and ensure that every Missouri vote counts equally.

Vote NO on Missouri Amendment 5 Eliminating the state income tax may sound appealing, but Amendment 5 would give the legislature sweeping new power to replace that revenue by expanding taxes on goods and services. Everyday expenses that many Missourians currently face with little or no sales tax—vehicle repairs, home improvements, plumbing and electrical work, lawn care, professional services, delivery fees, streaming subscriptions, and similar purchases—could become significantly more expensive. The real risk is not the end of the income tax. It is what takes its place. Once this authority is written into the Constitution, future lawmakers could broaden the sales-tax base without voters knowing in advance which items will be taxed or how high those rates may climb. Any savings from lower income taxes could quickly disappear through higher costs on the services and repairs people still must pay for. Retirees, disabled veterans, and working families would feel this impact most, because these are not optional expenses. Missouri should not remove one tax without first presenting a clear, complete, and transparent plan for what replaces it. Vote NO on Amendment 5 so that lower income taxes do not become an open door to higher taxes on nearly everything we buy and use. Vote NO on Missouri Amendment 4 Amendment 4 would allow a single congressional district to defeat a statewide constitutional amendment even when a majority of Missouri voters approve it. A proposal could win 60 percent of the statewide vote and still fail if it falls just short in one district. That arrangement hands a minority of voters an effective veto over the clear will of the majority. Every Missourian’s vote should carry equal weight—whether that voter lives in Kansas City, St. Louis, Columbia, Springfield, Moberly, or a rural community.

I believe Amendment 4 is seriously flawed. Even though I do support the Republican Party reforming the Initiative Petition process to prevent far left ballot issues from being shoved into the constitution, I believe the path proposed by Amendment 4 is borderline corrupt. There should not be a double standard between amendments from the legislature and from the people. I personally support a majority of the majority of congressional districts or at least a 60% majority vote for passage for all amendments, regardless of if they come from the people or the legislature. I am undecided but I am leaning towards “no” on A4.

Yesterday, Ann Wagner voted against reining in the war in Iran. Again. Missouri families are watching gas prices climb and paying the price. We need a representative who will fight to lower costs at home, not enable endless wars abroad. #Missouri #StLouis #IranWar #Election2026
