Governor Kehoe to Sign House Bill 1…

SEPTEMBER 25, 2025

Jefferson City- Today, Governor Mike Kehoe announced that he intends to sign House Bill 1 of the One Hundred Third General Assembly's Second Extraordinary Session of the First Regular Session on Sunday, September 28, 2025.

"After a thorough bill review process with our team, I am prepared to officially sign the Missouri First Map into law," said Governor Kehoe. "Missouri's conservative, common-sense values should be truly represented at all levels of government, and the Missouri First Map delivers just that. We appreciate the work of legislators in the General Assembly in getting this bill to my desk, as well as passing critically needed IP reform to give Missouri voters the opportunity to protect our Constitution at the ballot box."

On August 29, Governor Kehoe convened the General Assembly for a special session to enact legislation establishing updated congressional districts for the State of Missouri and amending the state's initiative petition process. On September 12, the General Assembly truly agreed to and finally passed the Missouri First Map in House Bill 1 and the "Protect Missouri Voters" amendment in House Joint Resolution 3.

The bill signing will be a closed event. A press release will follow the signing, with photos available on the Governor's Flickr page.
