Missouri is one of several states in which legislators are working quickly to redraw voting maps to benefit the Trump administration and congressional Republicans before the next election.
Those efforts have hit multiple legal obstacles in Missouri, including lawsuits and a possible referendum. How these legal battles end could have a major effect on the immediate political future of Missouri, and even the country.
In this month’s Legal Roundtable, St. Louis Judicial Commissioner Erica Slater, former Chief Magistrate Judge in the Eastern District of Missouri Nannette Baker and former Missouri Supreme Court Chief Justice Michael Wolff analyze the possibilities.
They also provide insight on the top legal topics of the moment, including why the Missouri Supreme Court won’t take up the appeal of a $611 million verdict over the weed killer Roundup and a new lawsuit from the family of a victim of the 2022 CVPA school shooting against BJC Health System.
