11/09/26 Missouri Mondays - WE DID IT!!! Missouri says YES on 6! NO on 3 Abortion Ban! NO on Prop A PowerGrab Maps! | Dems SHATTER MO GOP Supermajorities!
Welcome to Missouri Mondays!
🎉 WE DID IT!!!
❌ Missouri voters said NO on Proposition A, NO on politicians’ rigged congressional map!
🚩Richard von Glahn, Campaign Director People Not Politicians- “What started last July — when President Trump ordered the Missouri legislature to engage in an unprecedented power grab — ended today with a complete repudiation of politicians who sought to enact this election-rigging scheme. The defeat of Proposition A is just the latest voter rejection of Governor Kehoe’s failed vision for Missouri. A statewide coalition of Republican, Democratic, and Independent voters soundly rejected Proposition A, which should have more aptly been named the “Politicians First” map. As has always been true throughout this saga, the 2022 congressional districts remain as the only legally-enacted congressional districts for Missouri. Achieving this victory would not have been possible without the amazing sacrifices of thousands of Missourians. You spent your weekends gathering signatures; you spent your treasure fighting lawsuits; and you spent your weekends and your evenings canvassing this fall. All of this energy and effort culminated in more people power than corrupt politicians could handle — just the way it should be in a democracy. Missouri is truly a model of what organizing can accomplish. As we have said since September 2025: People, not politicians, will always have the final say. Today, we spoke clearly. Thank you.”
🚩“I’ve always said from the beginning, the will of the people always prevails in the end. I am honored to continue representing Missouri’s Fifth district and get back to work on the issues that matter most to families across our community. Extremist politicians tried to push through a gerrymandered map at the last minute. But, we were able to overcome gigantic hurdles and made sure to not let radicals take our voices away.” –Congressman Emanuel Cleaver, II
âś…Missouri said YES on Amendment 6 making it much harder for lawmakers to overturn citizen initiative petitions
🚩Benjamin Singer, co-founder and Executive Director of Respect Missouri Voters- “Tonight, Missourians did more than pass Amendment 6 – we proved what’s possible when Republicans, Democrats, independents, and people from all walks of life come together around a shared belief that our voices and our votes should matter. Together, we’ve build something much bigger than a campaign – a grassroots movement rooted in communities across Missouri. And this victory is just the beginning of what we can accomplish together to build a democracy that truly works for all people.” “For years, Missouri Republicans worked to undo or restrict voter-approved laws and amendments. In passing Amendment 6, voters have not only protected the ballot initiative process but also dramatically strengthened their power over the legislature.”
❌ Missouri voters said NO to Amendment 3 rejecting another abortion ban and protecting our reproductive freedom!
🚩“In a historic defeat of politicians' attempt to repeal the 2024 Right to Reproductive Freedom Amendment and ban abortion again, Missouri voters decisively rejected Amendment 3 and kept abortion legal!” –Abortion Action MO
🚩”Missourians made their voices heard: Amendment 3 has failed, and abortion remains a constitutional right in the State of Missouri! Once again, Missourians have rejected the dirty tricks from anti-abortion politicians trying to overturn our votes and ban abortion. We’ve sent a clear message: we do not support abortion bans that harm women and pregnant people, intimidate healthcare providers, and force people to leave our state for care. Reproductive freedom remains a constitutional right in Missouri thanks to the relentless commitment and work of volunteers, organizers, and voters across the state. This victory is thanks to thousands of numbers dialed, doors knocked, and ballots cast by YOU!” -Planned Parenthood Great Rivers Action
🚩“We’ve said it before, voters said it again tonight, and we’ll continue fighting until we are heard fully: Missourians do not want politicians interfering with our healthcare decisions. Not with our abortions. Not with our gender-affirming care. Never with our bodies, our families, or our futures.” — Margot Riphagen-Dunn, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood Great Rivers Action
âś… Democrats SHATTERED MO GOP supermajorities in both the MO House and Senate!
🚩“Democrats ended Republican supermajorities in both legislative chambers, picked up 16 Missouri House seats and ousted a seven-term Republican congresswoman. Voters rejected a renewed abortion ban, defeated a congressional map backed by President Donald Trump and imposed new restrictions on lawmakers’ ability to overturn citizen initiatives.”https://missouriindependent.com/2026/11/04/missouri-republicans-suffer-biggest-electoral-setback-in-a-generation/ Missouri Independent Nov 4
🚩“Missouri Republicans suffer biggest electoral setback in a generation– Democrats shattered GOP legislative supermajorities, flipped a congressional seat and gained ground in unexpected places as voters rejected abortion restrictions and efforts to weaken their power over state laws” https://missouriindependent.com/2026/11/04/missouri-republicans-suffer-biggest-electoral-setback-in-a-generation/ Missouri Independent Nov 4
