Missouri’s governor is optimistic the GOP-controlled Legislature will approve his two priorities during the special session: congressional redistricting and changes to Missouri’s initiative petition process. Governor Mike Kehoe (R) says initiative petition reform is needed to ensure that our state Constitution puts Missouri values first. The Missouri NAACP chapter is suing Governor Kehoe in an attempt to stop the special session on congressional redistricting. The NAACP says the special session is unconstitutional. State Rep. John Martin (R-Columbia) disagrees with the NAACP. Representative Martin joined hosts Randy Tobler and Stephanie Bell live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri" and cites Article 3 Section 45 of the state Constitution. Rep. Martin says Missouri lawmakers drew new congressional districts in the mid-1960s. He also tells listeners that Missouri's GOP-controlled Legislature has an opportunity to flip a seat and says the values Republicans have is what's best for the state of Missouri:

Some Missouri lawmakers return to Jefferson City today for a special session on congressional redistricting and on amending the state’s initiative petition process. Governor Mike Kehoe (R) announced the call Friday afternoon, and Democrats are furious. State Rep. LaKeySha Bosley (D-St. Louis) says the integrity of our democratic system is at stake. Governor Kehoe and other Republicans want to see a 7-1 GOP congressional map in Missouri, rather than the current 6-2 map. The governor joined hosts Randy Tobler and Jennifer Bukowsky live on 939 the Eagle's "Wake Up Missouri" and says he's optimistic that both measures, the congressional redistricting maps and IP changes, will pass. Governor Kehoe also tells listeners that Missourians have elected GOP supermajorities to both chambers and have elected Republicans to every statewide office:
