Organizers and activists in Missouri have been gathering signatures for an initiative to place women’s reproductive rights, women’s health care, and access to abortion on the ballot. Missourians for Constitutional Freedom is the conduit for the petition drive.

A significant number of volunteers gathering those signatures will occasionally set up a folding table in a public place and announce via social media and other means that they’ll be at that particular location for a few hours.

This afternoon a group of volunteers set up a table outside the police station on Third Street in Sedalia.

They were accompanied at a distance by a small group of anti-choice protesters holding signs.

If the petition drive gathers enough signatures they’ll get their chance to vote on this initiative along with everyone else.

You think that’s what they’re afraid of?

It was a cool and blustery Sunday in downtown Sedalia. People showed up to sign the petition while I was there. Otherwise, it was comparatively quiet.

Sign the petition. Encourage your friends and family to sign the petition.
