Missouri SJR85 amends the state constitution to prohibit child pornography and criminal racketeering in line with federal law.
Missouri SJR85 proposes to add three sections to the state constitution, clarifying that nothing in the state's constitution or laws can be interpreted to allow child pornography or criminal racketeering. It grants standing to any person to sue for violations of federal laws on these matters, with courts mandated to provide injunctive relief and reasonable attorney's fees to prevailing plaintiffs. This amendment aims to align state law with federal statutes on these serious offenses.
