However, the proposed ballot measure would change state anti-discrimination law to include discrimination against these groups, with an exception provided for religious organizations.[3] If approved, this measure will appear on the 2014 ballot.[3] References1. ^{{cite press release |last= |first= |title=Missourians For Equality files for approval of petition |date=November 12, 2012 |publisher=stltoday.com |url=http://interact.stltoday.com/pr/non-profits/PR111212125911012 |accessdate=2012-12-30}} 2. ^{{cite press release |last= |first= |title=Initiative petition approved for circulation for 2014 ballot |date=December 27, 2012 |publisher=Missouri Secretary of State Robin Carnahan |location=Jefferson City, MO |url=http://sos.mo.gov/news.asp?id=1145 |accessdate=2012-12-30}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.stltoday.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/political-fix/group-hopes-to-get-sexual-orientation-discrimination-on-missouri-ballots/article_cdd74ad2-69ad-5fed-9e2f-f0f058dc399b.html|title=Group hopes to get measure banning sexual orientation bias on Missouri ballots|first=Elizabeth|last=Crisp|date=November 13, 2012|accessdate=2012-12-30|publisher=St. Louis Post-Dispatch}} External links
