A key part of the Safer Missouri Plan is now law.
Governor Mike Kehoe has signed SB 888, a major step toward strengthening accountability for violent crime and ensuring justice for victims across Missouri.
SB 888 was led by Senator Nick Schroer and Representative Brad Christ, alongside supporting lawmakers who worked to advance the bill through the General Assembly. Their leadership — combined with Governor Kehoe’s action — reflects a clear commitment to addressing crime and restoring safety in our communities.
This legislation reinforces what Missourians already know: public safety requires action. Stronger enforcement, meaningful consequences, and a justice system that prioritizes victims are essential to reversing dangerous trends and protecting families.
At Missouri Valor Alliance, we are grateful for the leadership shown in passing SB 888 and for the continued focus on supporting law enforcement and holding violent offenders accountable.
Missouri is moving in the right direction — toward safer streets, stronger communities, and justice that puts victims first.
