As our coalition grows and we gear up to start gathering signatures this summer, there's a lot to do to get organized and build the operation we'll need to make this campaign to BAN Missouri Politicians from attacking the will of the people a success.
The power-hungry politicians in Jefferson City haven't let up and neither can we. We must double down on our fundraising efforts and spreading the word about our campaign to find others to help with the work ahead to protect our freedom of petition.
