Summary

The resolution would change the state constitution to require adults ages 19 to 64 who qualify for MO HealthNet and earn up to 133% of the federal poverty level (plus a family‑size adjustment) to demonstrate work compliance before enrollment and each month thereafter. It also removes the existing prohibition on creating new eligibility or enrollment standards for these beneficiaries. The amendment would be placed on the ballot for voter approval in November 2026 or a special election.
