HJR 114 Missouri House · 2024 Regular Session

Modifies composition of the House of Representatives and modifies term limits

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to change how Missouri's House of Representatives is structured and how its districts are drawn. It would increase the number of House members to 163 and require districts to be created by an independent bipartisan commission rather than politicians. The commission would select members from the two major political parties, and the new districts must follow strict rules to ensure equal population, protect voting rights, keep communities together, and maintain fairness between parties. Additionally, the bill modifies term limits for state representatives, though the specific limit details are not fully visible in the provided text.
