A special session is underway in Jefferson City, Missouri, where legislators are set to spend the next several days reviewing proposed congressional redistricting maps.
Gov. Mike Kehoe called the special session late Friday afternoon before the Labor Day weekend. He hopes legislators also review the state's voter initiative process, calling for several changes.
On Wednesday, the House released the text of the bill that would support the redistricting proposed by the governor.
