Governor Kehoe Announces Second Special Session

September 5, 2025

Governor Mike Kehoe issued a proclamation on Monday announcing a second special session to enact legislation establishing updated congressional districts and amending the state’s initiative petition process.

“I am calling on the General Assembly to take action on congressional redistricting and initiative petition reform to ensure our districts and Constitution truly put Missouri values first,” said Governor Kehoe. “This is about clarity for voters and ownership of our future, and I hope the legislature will work together to pass our Missouri First Map and critically needed IP reform.”
