Protect and leave in place all existing Civil War monuments - both Confederate and Union - as well as all Civil War flags and/or flag displays, and to restore all Civil War flags that previously flew or monuments that were in place at historic sites.

The Issue

With the ever increasing attack on all things sacred and the ever increasing efforts to revise and erase history and historical objects, such as flags and monuments, it is necessary to protect said objects by enacting laws that do so.  The people own the history of this fair State, not politicians who are willing to do anything for political gain.  History cannot be changed nor can it be erased, and it is the duty of all Missourians to protect that history.
