The ACLU of Missouri dares to create a more perfect union — beyond one person, party, or side.
"The new map faces a series of court challenges from orgs such as the ACLU of Missouri and the Missouri chapter of the NAACP. At the same time, a group called People Not Politicians launched a signature-gathering campaign to try to force a statewide vote that would strike down the map."

Remind a friend, abortion access is available in Missouri.

After the Right to Reproductive Freedom Initiative passed last November, Missourians gained access to care. First, hospital-based providers began to provide care without the threat of prosecution.

“The unanimous decision is a critical affirmation that patients can continue to access procedural abortions in Missouri. The court rejected this attempt by the Attorney General, and is continuing to allow Missourians to exercise their constitutional right to access abortion care where they live."

Missouri has executed Lance Shockley.

Abolish the death penalty.

Abolish the death penalty. The death penalty violates the constitutional ban on cruel and unusual punishment, and is discriminatory, arbitrary, and prone to error in enforcement.

Happening now: We are in court fighting the state’s unconstitutional book ban — passed as SB775 —that led to the immediate removal of hundreds of books from school libraries. We will always stand to protect student’s First Amendment right to access information.

"Despite denying a deployment in Missouri just days ago, Kehoe's actions threaten people & businesses across the state & ignores the needs of the St. Louis community that is still in the midst of clean up from a devastating tornado,” said Luz María Henríquez, executive director -ACLU of Missouri.

Today in the Missouri Supreme Court,  we joined our friends @lambdaLegal to fight a discriminatory ban that prevents Trans Youth from accessing care only because of their transgender status.
September 24, 2025 at 8:31 PM
See you in court, Governor Kehoe.

We the people!
POV: You're with thousands of Missourians who believe people, not politicians, should have power in our state! ❤️💙

Abortion care remains available in Missouri

We stood with Planned Parenthood to defend abortion access from the Gov's handpicked Attorney General. The AG continued her predecessor's efforts to overturn the will of the people.

We asked the court to block the ban on medication abortion care.

Breaking: With our friends at PPGreatPlains and @ppgreatrivers.bsky.social, we are defending the voter-approved constitutional amendment in two separate courts against the unelected Attorney General's attempt to reinstate the total abortion ban while we demand access to medication abortion care.

"That all political power is vested in and derived from the people; that all government of right originates from the people, is founded upon their will only, and is instituted solely for the good of the whole." 

Take the power back. secure.everyaction.com/Vpuyv0iR1kG5...

Politicians in our state are gathering to silence Missourians by gutting the citizen ballot measures and illegally gerrymandering Kansas City at the request of elites in Washington D.C.

Join the fight to stop politicians from silencing Missourians.

As Gov. Kehoe, President Pro Tem O'Laughlin, & Speaker Patterson cower to demands from Washington D.C. to further gerrymander our state, Missourians will be left with diminished representation, disenfranchisement, & more divisive politics. This power grab to subvert democracy is wrong for Missouri.

Abortion Rights Update: we are in court fighting to preserve our right to reproductive freedom by asking the judge to rule Amendment 3, passed as HJR73, as unconstitutional and prevent it from appearing on a ballot or to give Missourians fair and accurate ballot language.
August 27, 2025 at 7:55 PM
An overreliance on corporal punishment & expulsion has put the most vulnerable members of our community, our children, on a collision course with law enforcement and the school-to-prison pipeline while denying them the expectation that all children deserve an equal chance to receive an education.

The ACLU of Missouri is taking applications for a fall internship with our Policy and Campaigns Team. Our work covers several issues including free speech and association rights, voting rights, reproductive rights, LGBTQ+ equality, and more. Apply at www.aclu-mo.org/en/who-we-ar...

Breaking: A Jackson county judge issued a new preliminary injunction again blocking Missouri's abortion ban and several restrictions clearing the way for Planned Parenthood to provide procedural abortion care.
July 3, 2025 at 11:26 PM
"The vote last November was historic, offering a fierce rebuke of Republican state lawmakers who had spent decades restricting access. The constitutional amendment overturned a near-total ban that was enacted in 2022 after the U.S. Supreme Court struck down Roe v. Wade."
July 3, 2025 at 5:27 PM
Breaking: We filed a lawsuit against the SOS for certifying an intentionally misleading and inaccurate summary statement & fair ballot language for a measure that would overturn the recent voter-passed protections for reproductive freedom. The bill passed as HJR 73 but has been assigned Amendment 3.

You have the right to be loud, courageous, and boldly you. Pride has always been a protest—and it does not end here.

You can’t legislate people out of existence. Trans people of all ages deserve to live unapologetically as their authentic self.
