HJR 101 Missouri House · 2024 Regular Session

Modifies who is entitled to vote in the state of Missouri

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to expand voting rights in Missouri to include individuals aged eighteen and older who reside in veterans' homes and sailors' homes. The measure would allow these residents to vote if they are registered within the legal timeframe or have lived in their local political subdivision for at least thirty days before the election. However, the amendment explicitly excludes people with court-appointed guardians due to mental incapacity, those involuntarily confined in mental institutions, and individuals convicted of felonies or crimes related to voting. Currently, the bill is in the early stages of the legislative process and has not yet been voted on by the Missouri General Assembly.
