In a portion of her latest newsletter, Rep. Stacey Newman, D-St. Louis, urges Missourians to vote no on all five of the constitutional amendments when they go to the polls next month.
VOTE NO! ON ALL 5 AMENDMENTS
Amendment #1 - Right to Farm: THIS WILL PROTECT CORPORATE FARMS & PUPPY MILLS. PERIOD.
"Shall the Missouri Constitution be amended to ensure that the right of Missouri citizens to engage in agricutural production and ranching practices shall not be infringed?"
Amendment #5- Right to Bear Arms: THIS WILL GIVE CRIMINALS MORE GUN RIGHTS - AND VICTIMS LESS. COMPLETELY DANGEROUS.
"Shall the Missouri Constitution be amended to include a declaration that the right to keep and bear arms is a unalienable right and that the state government is obligated to uphold that right?"
Amendment #7- Transportation Tax: THIS WILL FUND TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS ON THE BACKS OF LOW INCOME WORKERS BY RAISING SALES TAXES - SO WRONG. A GAS TAX IS THE PROPER WAY.
"Shall the Missouri Constitution be changed to enact a temporary sales tax of thee-quarters of one percent to be used solely to fund state and local highways, roads, bridges and transportation projects for ten years, with priority given to repairing unsafe roads and bridges? This change is expected to produce $480 million annually to the state's Tranportation Safety and Job Creation Fund and $54 million for local governments. Increases in the gas tax will be prohibited."
Amendment #8- Veterans Lottery Ticket: THIS WILL REDUCE EDUCATION FUNDING (LESS THIS YEAR ALREADY) - WITH LITTLE BENEFIT FOR VETERANS HOMES.
Shall the Missouri Constitution be amended to create a (Veterans Lottery Ticket) and to use the revenue from the sale of these tickets for projects and services related to veterans? If sales of a veterans lottery ticket game decrease existing lottery ticket sales, the profits of which fund education, there could be a small annual shift in funding from education to veterans programs."
Amendment #9- Electronic Data: THIS WILL HINDER LAW ENFORCEMENT - MANY UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES...
"Shall the Missouri Constitution be amended so that the people shall be secure in their electronic communications and data from unreasonable searches and seizrues as they are now likewise secure in their persons, homes, paprs and effects?"

So any amendment that keeps people safe from government intrusion she doesn't like. What do you expect from a liberal. She should just support the the people in St. Louis that live on the government tit and leave the hard working people of Missouri alone. Just look at the crime stats from St.Louis and Kansas City and see the type of people she supports.
