Missouri's governor is optimistic the GOP-controlled Legislature will approve his two priorities during the special session: congressional redistricting and changes to Missouri's initiative petition process.

The Missouri NAACP chapter is suing Governor Kehoe in an attempt to stop the special session on congressional redistricting. The NAACP says the special session is unconstitutional. State Rep.
