Introduced Text

Missouri HJR109 proposes a constitutional amendment to affirm the right to life for every human being with a unique DNA code, regardless of age.

Missouri HJR109 proposes a constitutional amendment to redefine the term "person" to include every human being with a unique DNA code, regardless of age, from conception until birth. This change aims to affirm the right to life for all individuals, including in utero children, and explicitly states that the constitution does not secure or protect a right to abortion or require funding for abortion. The amendment will be submitted to voters for approval at the next general election or a special election called by the governor.
