Statement on Cole County Circuit Court Ruling

“We are appealing and are confident that the courts will ultimately uphold the voices of more than 367,000 Missourians and let the people decide,” said former Sen. Bob Johnson (R-Lee’s Summit). “Those Missourians signed a petition, followed Missouri’s initiative petition process, and deserve the opportunity to decide the measure for themselves to make it harder for politicians to overturn what voters decided.”
