Missouri abortion rights initiative headed for November ballot
Missouri voters will decide in November whether to enshrine a right to abortion via a constitutional amendment that would end the near total ban. The secretary of state certified the petition as valid, with the measure backed by Missourians for Constitutional Freedom and funded by Planned Parenthood affiliates and the ACLU. The initiative faces a majority vote to pass, joining other states weighing abortion rights in the presidential election. The SOS also certified initiatives on a $15 minimum wage and legalizing sports betting.

Brunswick Hills seeks balance between growth and farmland
Brunswick Hills Township leaders push to preserve agricultural land while planning for a 20 year future. The steering committee, aided by Mackin Engineers, reviews a 350 person survey from about 10 000 residents and considers changes to land use maps to attract needed commercial and industrial development, including Architectural Justice plans for a resort style vineyard. The goal is to sustain the tax base without eroding rural character as residents emphasize keeping farmland and the community's future for children.
