All the recent amendments, like Medicaid expansion, are the result of out-of-state dark money interests buying socialist expansion of gov. Able bodied working age adults should not get "free" insurance from the gov. Totally support the GOP on this.

Private insurance is better

Republican lawmakers in the Missouri House have voted not to pay for the expansion, drawing criticism that they're going against the will of the people.

The voters spoke their mind about this and its borderline criminal that Republicans in Jeff City continue to openly defy and thumb their noses at the majority of voters and what we voted for. We will see them in Court and they will lose!

Harold Kerr II

THE PEOPLE VOTED FOR IT. SCREW JEFFERSON CITY!

Oooh, are you Angry? Maybe only taxpayers and land owners should be allowed to vote.

Randel Hearne

Just like the proposed gas tax increase that has been voted down that they are trying to increase and the right to work it is wrong. But if you leave it up to the voters on some issues they can't make an educated decision because they don't speed the time to research what they are voting on.

The citizens voted to expand Medicaid. This is a democracy and the will of the voters should not be overruled.

Harry D

Constitutional amendments should require more than 50% of the vote to pass. Too much dark money being spent on off year elections to buy liberal policy they can't get passed in the legislature. This does NOT represent the "will of the people."

The Constitution should be the bedrock of our democracy, not a 50.000001% out-of-state dark money, pay petition gathers and buy an election with false advertising gimmick. It should take way more signatures to get on the ballot and 75% of the vote during a presidential election for a change. FJB

It's too easy under current law.

Max DeYoung

It should be made more difficult to amend, this will preserve it's strength.

It's a power grab. Anyone can see that.

Harry D

Grabbing power away from the out-of-state dark money liberals who can't get their simps elected to the legislature and giving power back to the people where it belongs.

Timothy Johnson

Because the Republicans want to control the voters instead of the voters controlling the government.

Harry D

You can't possibly believe that. Everyone knows these initiative petitions are bought and paid for by out-of-state special interests who are very well funded. Constitutions should only be amended on rare occasions and it should be difficult to do, not easy to buy.
