(From Jeffrey A. Mittman, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Missouri)
"By passing Amendment 9 with 728,549 yes to 246,020 no votes, Missourians ensured that our digital and electronic communications enjoy the same privacy protections as the papers in our homes and on our persons. Missourians can take pride in being the first state to bring their Constitution into the 21st century by a vote of the people.
Privacy is a core American value and Missourians are not alone in wanting to protect their privacy from warrantless government surveillance. Congress and the President should listen to the voters of Missouri by strengthening Federal laws to ensure our privacy online and in all of our electronic communications and data."
