"The initiative petition process is not a partisan issue — it is a safety net for all Missourians when lawmakers at the state Capitol will not act in their best interests. On Nov. 3, protect that right and ensure the people’s voice remains the final word by voting yes on Amendment 6."

The Kansas City Star Editorial Board
“The legislature should not be attacking the will of the people.”

Marvin Singleton, Former State Senator | Joplin
“People who disagree on almost everything agree that the people deserve the final say. That's what Amendment 6 is about: protecting citizen initiatives, majority rule and laws enacted by voters from political interference.”

Rod Chapel, Missouri State Conference of the NAACP
“Missouri is one of those states where we get to put things on a ballot because we don’t believe our state legislators are doing what they need to do.”

Maxine Clark, Entrepreneur
"Respecting the will of the people isn’t a partisan issue. But when politicians from either party attempt to overturn voter-approved measures or make it more difficult for everyday citizens to exercise their constitutional rights, safeguards are needed to keep them from amassing too much power at the expense of the people. I urge all Missourians to vote for Amendment 6."

Jason Kander, Former Missouri Secretary of State
“Preserving the initiative petition process and respecting the will of the people are essential checks and balances when elected officials become too invested in maintaining the status quo. [...] I support the efforts of the Respect Missouri Voters initiative and urge Missourians to vote yes on Amendment 6 this November.”

John C. Danforth, Former Missouri Attorney General and U.S. Senator
"This voter-initiative referendum [sic] seeks to prevent the Legislature from tossing aside the expressed will of the voters, as it so often tends to do. [...] Vote 'yes' on Amendment 6."

St. Louis Post-Dispatch Editorial Board
