State of Missouri Constitutional Amendments

Constitutional Amendment No. 1

Proposed by Article IV, Section 47(c)(Second Regular Session) SJR No. 1
Shall Missouri continue for 10 years the one-tenth of one percent sales/use tax that is used for soil and water conservation and for state parks and historic sites, and resubmit this tax to the voters for approval in 10 years? The measure allows continued collection of the existing sales and use tax, which generates revenue of approximately $140 million annually.

Constitutional Amendment No. 2

Proposed by 103rd General Assembly, (First Regular Session) HCS HJR Nos. 23 & 3
Shall the Missouri Constitution be amended to:

  • require all charter counties, including Jackson County, to provide for the election of
    a county assessor; and
  • require assessors in all charter counties to comply with any training requirements
    established by general law?

State and local governmental entities estimate no costs or savings.

Constitutional Amendment No. 4

Proposed by 103rd General Assembly (Second Extraordinary Session) HCS HJR No. 3
Shall the Missouri Constitution be amended to:

  • Modify current requirements that a statewide majority of voters may approve
    initiative petitions to amend the constitution;
  • Require a majority of voters in each congressional district to approve initiative
    petitions to amend the constitution; and
  • Make available to each voter the full text of initiative petitions with their ballot?

The Department of Corrections estimates increased annual costs of up to $21,817. The
Office of State Public Defender estimates an unknown fiscal impact. Other state
governmental entities estimate no costs or savings. Local governmental entities estimate no
costs or savings

Constitutional Amendment No. 5

Proposed by 103rd General Assembly, (Second Regular Session) SS SCS HCS HJR Nos. 173 & 174
Shall the Missouri Constitution be amended to:

  • Require legislative phase-out of the individual state income tax based on revenue
    growth, and authorize the expansion of sales and use taxes;
  • Curtail constitutional limits on taxing goods and services; and
  • Require local tax rate cuts without reducing school funding if local sales tax revenue
    increases?

The proposal has no direct impact on state or local tax revenue. If passed, implementing
legislation will have an unknown impact to state and local tax revenue. If implemented,
state government entities expect a reduction of $57,000 annually in income tax check-off
donations and implementation costs of at least $100,000.
