Missourians for Equality is a nonpartisan political action committee founded in July 2012 and dedicated to ending LGBT discrimination in Missouri.[1] The organization is based in Columbia, Missouri.
In December 2012, the organization was approved to circulate an initiative petition reforming anti-discrimination laws in the state of Missouri.[2] Under current state law, discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity in employment and housing is not prohibited. However, the proposed ballot measure would change state anti-discrimination law to include discrimination against these groups, with an exception provided for religious organizations.[3] If approved, this measure will appear on the 2014 ballot.[3][needs update]
