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.

We had been asking about 30% renderings since December. I was told January, then February. Then it was May and June. Now we are hearing on the record they’ve been done but there are money issues slowing the process down: @kmov firstalert4.com/2026/07/24/lam…

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.

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.

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.
