Our call — vote YES
The measure
Proposition A is a referendum on House Bill 1 (2025), which provided for new congressional districts in Missouri. The question asks voters to uphold the legislature's new map; the 2025 map notably divides Kansas City among three districts, per Missouri ballot summaries.
What YES does
A YES vote upholds House Bill 1: the new congressional districts enacted by the elected General Assembly become Missouri's map.
What NO does
A NO vote repeals House Bill 1 and keeps the prior (2022) congressional map in place.
The math
No fiscal effect was published in the sources consulted. Redistricting changes district lines, not state spending, and no dollar figure accompanies the referendum's published summary.
OUR CALL
Our call: YES.
The constitution assigns line-drawing to the people's elected legislature, and the legislature acted. A referendum is the voters' check, and on the merits we side with the map the General Assembly passed over restoring the old lines. Vote YES to uphold HB 1.
