2025 Missouri redistricting
In July 2025, lawmakers in the U.S. state of Missouri began considering a legislative redistricting plan ahead of the 2026 United States House of Representatives elections.
On August 29, 2025, Missouri Governor Mike Kehoe announced a special session to redraw the congressional maps with a proposed map dismantling the safe blue 5th congressional district. Governor Kehoe signed the proposed map bill into law on September 28.
Following its enactment, the map has faced lawsuits and a citizens' initiative ballot measure that, if put on the ballot, would suspend the map's implementation for the 2026 election, and if approved, would overturn the map. The ballot measure faces opposition from state Republicans. In March 2026, opponents of the map said they had gathered enough signatures for the ballot measure to qualify.
