Single-day petition signature total shatters previous statewide record in Missouri

Missouri — On Tuesday, April 2, volunteers for Missourians for Constitutional Freedom were out in force across the state gathering petition signatures to put the constitutional amendment to end Missouri’s total abortion ban on the ballot.

In a single day, Missourians for Constitutional Freedom collected nearly 20,000 petition signatures to put our amendment to end Missouri’s total abortion ban on the ballot.  

MCF’s historic day, by the numbers:

✅ > 19,000 signatures collected in total
✅ > 300 volunteers collecting signatures

“Missourians are responding with historic enthusiasm to our effort to put a constitutional amendment protecting reproductive freedom on the ballot and end the state’s total abortion,” said Rachel Sweet, Campaign Manager for Missourians for Constitutional Freedom. “As hundreds of volunteers work in every community across Missouri to get the word out about our campaign, Missourians of all backgrounds and political persuasions are joining us – because the vast majority of Missourians agree that we should trust patients and their doctors to decide what’s right for their unique situation, not politicians. Our grassroots movement continues to build momentum, and we’re going to keep doing the work to grow support across the state.”
