CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS

CONSTITUTIONAL

AMENDMENT NO. 2

Proposed by the 97th General Assembly

(First Regular Session)

SCS HJR 16
Shall the Missouri Constitution be amended so that it will be permissible to allow relevant
evidence of prior criminal acts to be admissible in prosecutions for crimes of a sexual nature
involving a victim under eighteen years of age?
If more resources are needed to defend increased prosecutions additional costs to
governmental entities could be at least $1.4 million annually, otherwise the fiscal impact is
expected to be limited.

YES
NO

CONSTITUTIONAL

AMENDMENT NO. 3

Proposed by Initiative Petition
Shall the Missouri Constitution be amended to:
• require teachers to be evaluated by a standards based performance evaluation system for
which each local school district must receive state approval to continue receiving state and
local funding;
• require teachers to be dismissed, retained, demoted, promoted and paid primarily using
quantifiable student performance data as part of the evaluation system;
• require teachers to enter into contracts of three years or fewer with public school districts;
and• prohibit teachers from organizing or collectively bargaining regarding the design and
implementation of the teacher evaluation system?
Decisions by school districts regarding provisions allowed or required by this proposal and
their implementation will influence the potential costs or savings impacting each district.
Significant potential costs may be incurred by the state and/or the districts if new/additional
evaluation instruments must be developed to satisfy the proposal’s performance evaluation
requirements.

State governmental entities estimated startup costs of about $2 million and costs to
