Missouri proposal could reduce state reps, alter term limits

Saturday, December 28, 2024 at 12:00 AM

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – A new proposal could shake up the Missouri political scene by slashing the number of state representatives and adjusting term limit rules for all state lawmakers.

Missouri State Rep. Jeff Myers (R-Warrenton) has introduced House Joint Resolution 12, which calls to modify term limits and the number of Missouri House representatives.

Currently, the Missouri House of Representatives consists of 163 members. The new proposal calls to reduce that number to 103 “by “beginning with the 2030 decennial census.”

This plan would call for Missouri’s House districts to be redrawn entirely, in addition to measures that pertain to voting and ensure “partisan fairness and competitiveness,” according to the language of HJR 12.
