Missouri voters will vote on a constitutional amendment on Tuesday

August 3, 2012 By rickf Leave a Comment

Voters in Missouri will decide the fate of a possible Constitutional Amendment that deals with religious issues.

By a simple “Yes” or No” vote, the amendment will address the rights of Missouri citizens so that their right to express religious beliefs shall not be infringed; that school children have the right to pray and acknowledge God voluntarily in their schools; and that all public schools shall display the Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution.

This proposal will result in little to no costs or savings for state and local governmental entities.
