Wise v. Missouri

In unprecedented fashion, the State of Missouri has redrawn the district lines used for electing members of Congress for a second time this decade. These new district lines are gerrymandered and will harm political representation for all Missourians, particularly Black residents in Kansas City, who have been divided along racial lines.

Reproductive Freedom

Comprehensive Health of Planned Parenthood Great Plains & Planned Parenthood Great Rivers v. Missouri

The ACLU, Ƶof Missouri, and Planned Parenthood Federation of America are representing Missouri’s two Planned Parenthood providers. Following the passage of Amendment 3, the Right to Reproductive Freedom Initiative, Comprehensive Health of Planned Parenthood Great Plains and Planned Parenthood Great Rivers, filed suit to restore abortion access in the state. The suit seeks to enjoin Missouri’s numerous abortion bans and countless burdensome, medically unnecessary restrictions on abortion that do not improve care or protect patient health. If the requested preliminary relief is granted, Planned Parenthood’s health centers would be able to begin providing abortion in Missouri once more — restoring access to this constitutionally protected health care.

KC Tenants v. David M. Byrn

On September 30, 2020, WRP and ACLU-MO filed a complaint for injunctive and declaratory relief in the Western District of Missouri on behalf of KC Tenants, a local grassroots organization that seeks to advance fair housing access to renters. The lawsuit challenges the Jackson County Circuit Court's administrative order that purports to implement the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) nationwide eviction moratorium, but instead permits eviction cases to move forward in violation of it, putting hundreds of Missouri tenants at risk for eviction in violation of federal protections.
