The resolution proposes an amendment to the Missouri Constitution that would repeal existing sections related to the management and funding of the Department of Conservation and replace them with four new sections. The new provisions aim to restructure the Conservation Commission, which will now consist of up to seven members appointed by the governor, with specific qualifications and terms. The amendment also establishes guidelines for the appointment process, including residency requirements for members and stipulations regarding their compensation and ethical conduct.

Additionally, the resolution introduces a new sales and use tax of one-eighth of one percent to fund the conservation efforts, with specific allocations for state parks and local political subdivisions. The funds generated from this tax will be strictly used for the management and conservation of wildlife resources and related activities. The amendment also outlines the process for the General Assembly to review any proposed sales or purchases of real property by the Department of Conservation, ensuring legislative oversight in these transactions. The proposed changes are set to be voted on by the qualified voters of Missouri during the general election in November 2026 or at a special election called by the governor.
