Summary
On January 23, 2024, Yannet Lathrop testified before the Missouri House Committee on Elections and Elected Officials against HB 1749, HJR 72, and HJR 102, bills that would make the ballot initiative process more difficult in Missouri. These anti-democratic measures would harm voters of all political stripes and walks of life, and can create an unhealthy distrust of government.
