Toni Easter

Toni Easter is a retired fashion industry executive and co-founder of Respect Missouri Voters, a group dedicated to promoting citizen-led ballot initiatives in Missouri. She has been an active advocate for civil rights, successfully leading efforts to secure abortion rights in the state's constitution. Easter's commitment to grassroots activism was evident when she organized a yard party in 2018 to support a redistricting initiative that ultimately faced opposition from Republican lawmakers. With her organization, she is now working to introduce a measure for the 2026 ballot aimed at preventing lawmakers from overturning initiatives approved by voters.
