Missouri Constitutional Convention Revises Legislative Article
The 1875 Missouri constitution Article on the Legislative Department is reworked. The draft keeps bicameral General Assembly, sets two year House terms and four year Senate terms, and preserves urban rural representation balance while proposing a districting commission. It tightens committee rules, prohibits extra pay for revision work, and strengthens legislative research through a permanent council. It also tightens limitations on public debt and credit, harmonizes pension and welfare provisions, and consolidates amendments into a coherent, shorter article.
