#BannedBooksWeek is a reminder that people deserve access to stories & perspectives that reflect the full range of who we are. Books with LGBTQ+ characters, stories about sexuality, and books that explore identity can help people feel seen, learn about themselves, & understand different experiences.
The image features a grid of book covers below text that reads "Protect the Freedom to Read" and "Read banned books. Make space for every person." The books shown include "All Boys Aren't Blue," "Speak," "Sold," "The Bluest Eye" by Toni Morrison, "Sex is a Funny Word," "Let's Talk About It," "Flamer," "Gender Queer," "And Tango Makes Three," and "Where the Wild Things Are."

Your future is on the ballot, Missouri. 🩷🗳️ Vote NO on 3. Vote YES on 6. Vote NO on Prop A. Save this guide, share it with a friend, and make your voting plan for November 3.

A YES vote on Amendment 6 would: 🔒 Make it harder for politicians to overturn what the people have already voted on. 🗳️ Require ALL ballot summaries to be clear and easy to understand. 📣 Preserve our century-old freedom to use the citizen initiative process. Missouri, vote YES on 6 on November 3!

This November 3, vote NO on Proposition A. We’re supposed to choose our representatives, but Proposition A takes away Missouri voters’ power and lets politicians choose their voters to guarantee their own re-elections. Missouri voters, not politicians, should have the final say. Vote NO on Prop A!

This November 3, Missourians will vote on Amendment 3, which would overturn the will of the voters & allow lawmakers to once again ban abortion in almost every case. If approved, it would roll back progress we’ve made expanding abortion access across MO. Vote NO on Amendment 3 this November.

Access to quality care would not be possible without community support. 🩷 Together, we're making reproductive freedom a reality for more Missourians. Thank you for continuing to fight for reproductive freedom and health care access for all.

In 2024, Missouri voters made their voices loud and clear: we demand abortion access. Now, politicians are trying to ignore that vote and ban abortion all over again. Join the movement to stop the ban at stopthebanmo.com and vote NO on Amendment 3 this November.

MO voters rejected Amendments 4 & 5, proving what we have known to be true—we won’t back down when politicians try to stomp out our voices. We’re taking this energy into November when MO voters will have the chance to uphold the will of the people and stop an abortion ban & vote NO on Amendment 3.

Recently, @stlouspublicradio broke down the court's decision affirming abortion rights in MO. Our President & CEO talked about 2026 Amendment 3: "Voters are clear that these are more games coming out of Jefferson City and from our elected officials. And they're tired of it." bit.ly/4ydIP2m

In 2024, Missourians voted to end the state's abortion ban. Now, politicians are trying to overturn the will of the people and take away our reproductive freedom. A no vote keeps decisions about pregnancy and abortion where they belong: between patients and their health care providers.

This August, Missourians will vote on Amendment 5, the Everything Tax. It would raise taxes on the things Missouri families cannot go without, & you can expect a sales tax on getting sick or hurt, resulting in patients delaying essential care. That’s why you should VOTE NO ON 5 this August!

Everyone should be able to access birth control & make decisions for their futures, including young people. Thanks to IL State Senator Graciela Guzmán & IL State Rep Dagmara Avelar for sponsoring SB 3341 to modernize language in IL’s existing law that allowed young people to access birth control.

We should never vote to give up our own power and hand it over to politicians and the special interests who control them. Amendment 4 would make it nearly impossible for citizens to pass ballot measures. Don't let your vote be silenced & VOTE NO ON 4 this August. protectmajorityrulemo.org

In Gov. Kehoe's State of the State, he outlined plans to strip income tax & support of the 2026 Amendment 3 proposal to reinstate an abortion ban. In 2024, 1.5M MO voters stood for freedom in health care and bodily autonomy in 2024, and we're confident that they will do so again in 2026.
