Weekly Newsletter - March 22

Photos from previous No Kings marches in St. Louis and Jefferson City When people are frustrated with politicians who aren't listening, they look for a way to take a very real, tangible action. That’s why we are gathering signatures at the upcoming No Kings 3 Protests on March 28 and the Municipal Elections on April 7 to meet voters where they are.  Our presence is about one thing: access. We believe that no matter why a voter is frustrated, they deserve a concrete way to take action. Signing this petition is that step. It’s the most effective tool available to ensure Missourians, not politicians, have the final say. We're at 194,000 signatures - let's rally together to keep that number going up!

Wait for them to leave. "They're in a better mood when they come out," says Bill Hughes.  By standing outside the St. Peters DMV (among other places), Bill is known to clock 50-70 signatures a week! It doesn't hurt that he always has a smile on his face and a quiet passion for our cause.   Bill simply tells the newly-licensed citizens to sign to prevent legislators from overturning voter initiatives already approved. "People don't like things taken away from them that they worked for," Bill points out.  When he isn't outside the DMV, Bill plays pickle ball every day, even gathering signatures from his fellow pickleheads. Keep it up, Bill! Respect MO Voters is a cross-partisan, grassroots movement building a more ethical, effective government of, by, and for the people. Join our coalition to protect direct democracy from politicians who want to take away our fundamental freedom to self-government. Together, we will use the citizen ballot initiative process to repair our republic. > DONATE Paid for by Respect MO Voters Campaign, Frederic Steinbach, Treasurer Respect MO Voters Campaign 725 Kingsland Ave Suite 100 St. Louis, MO 63130 United States   If you believe you received this message in error or wish to no longer receive email from us, please (Unsubscribing is not supported in previews).
