Additionally, the offense of tampering with a witness or a victim where the original charge is a felony shall be one felony charge lower than that of the original charge, instead of a class D felony.

This act requires the form developed by the Office of the State Courts Administrator for offenders committed to the Department of Corrections to include a sentencing calculation, including jail time credit supplemented by a certificate of a sheriff or custodial officer. The act further requires the court, when pronouncing as sentence, executing a suspended sentence, or suspending the imposition of a sentence, to record as part of the judgment, the number of days before the pronouncement of the sentence that the person was in prison, jail, or custody which was related to the offense. The court shall retain jurisdiction to rule on motions challenging the number of days of jail time credit (Sections 217.305 and 558.031) This act repeals the provisions requiring minimum prison terms for certain offenses and provides that offenders shall serve the following minimum percentage of the imposed term based upon the felony classification as follows: • Class A: 60% to 80% • Class B: 40% to 60% • Class C: 30% to 50% • Class D: 17% to 37% • Class E: 17% to 37% Current law provides that offenders guilty of a dangerous felony shall be required to serve a minimum prison term of 85% of the sentence imposed by the court or until the offender attains 70 years of age and has served at least 40% of the sentence imposed. This act repeals the 40% minimum prison term for offenders of dangerous felonies who have attained the age of 70. In cases where the sentencing court does not impose a specific term of imprisonment required to be served, the minimum percentage of the range associated with the felony class shall be the required percentage of the term to be served. Additionally, this act repeals provisions relating to conditional release by the Parole Board. (Sections 558.011 and 558.019) The act also repeals specific minimum prison terms and eligibility for probation and parole for following offenses: rape in the first degree, sodomy in the first degree, enticement of a child, sexual trafficking of a child in the first and second degree, abuse or neglect of a child, armed criminal action, unlawful use of weapons, promoting child pornography in the first degree, aggravated fleeing a stop or detention, tampering with a witness or victim, driving while intoxicated if a chronic or habitual offender, felonies connected with a criminal street gang, and failing to register as sex offender as a third offense (Sections 566.030, 566.060, 566.151, 566.210, 566.211, 568.060, 570.030, 571.015, 571.030, 573.025, 575.151, 575.270, 577.010, 578.425, and 589.425) For consecutive sentences, the sentencing court shall calculate the minimum percentage of term by taking half the term of years for each felony offense and adding the half number together to determine the total number of years required to be served prior to parole eligibility. For concurrent sentences, the offender shall be required to serve the minimum prison term for each offense. (Section 558.026) This act is identical to SB 1294 (2026) and contains provisions identical to provisions in SB 882 (2026). TRISTAN BENSON, JR.

Additionally, the offense of tampering with a witness or a victim where the original charge is a felony shall be one felony charge lower than that of the original charge, instead of a class D felony. (Section 575.270) This act modifies the definition of "dangerous felony" to include statutory rape in the first degree and statutory sodomy in the first degree, regardless of the age of victim. Additionally, the act includes the following offenses in the definition of "dangerous felony": • Trafficking for the purposes of slavery, involuntary servitude, peonage, or forced labor, or the attempt of such offense, when punished as a class A felony; • Trafficking for the purposes of sexual exploitation, or the attempt of such offense, when punished as a class A felony; • Sexual trafficking of a child in the first degree; • Sexual trafficking of a child in the second degree; and • Third offense of failing to register as a sex offender. (Section 556.061) This act also modifies jail time credit. This act requires the form developed by the Office of the State Courts Administrator for offenders committed to the Department of Corrections to include a sentencing calculation, including jail time credit supplemented by a certificate of a sheriff or custodial officer. The act further requires the court, when pronouncing as sentence, executing a suspended sentence, or suspending the imposition of a sentence, to record as part of the judgment, the number of days before the pronouncement of the sentence that the person was in prison, jail, or custody which was related to the offense. The court shall retain jurisdiction to rule on motions challenging the number of days of jail time credit (Sections 217.305 and 558.031) This act repeals the provisions requiring minimum prison terms for certain offenses and provides that offenders shall serve the following minimum percentage of the imposed term based upon the felony classification as follows: • Class A: 60% to 80% • Class B: 40% to 60% • Class C: 30% to 50% • Class D: 17% to 37% • Class E: 17% to 37% Current law provides that offenders guilty of a dangerous felony shall be required to serve a minimum prison term of 85% of the sentence imposed by the court or until the offender attains 70 years of age and has served at least 40% of the sentence imposed. This act repeals the 40% minimum prison term for offenders of dangerous felonies who have attained the age of 70. In cases where the sentencing court does not impose a specific term of imprisonment required to be served, the minimum percentage of the range associated with the felony class shall be the required percentage of the term to be served. Additionally, this act repeals provisions relating to conditional release by the Parole Board. (Sections 558.011 and 558.019) The act also repeals specific minimum prison terms and eligibility for probation and parole for following offenses: rape in the first degree, sodomy in the first degree, enticement of a child, sexual trafficking of a child in the first and second degree, abuse or neglect of a child, armed criminal action, unlawful use of weapons, promoting child pornography in the first degree, aggravated fleeing a stop or detention, tampering with a witness or victim, driving while intoxicated if a chronic or habitual offender, felonies connected with a criminal street gang, and failing to register as sex offender as a third offense (Sections 566.030, 566.060, 566.151, 566.210, 566.211, 568.060, 570.030, 571.015, 571.030, 573.025, 575.151, 575.270, 577.010, 578.425, and 589.425) For consecutive sentences, the sentencing court shall calculate the minimum percentage of term by taking half the term of years for each felony offense and adding the half number together to determine the total number of years required to be served prior to parole eligibility. For concurrent sentences, the offender shall be required to serve the minimum prison term for each offense. (Section 558.026) This act is identical to SB 894 (2026) and contains provisions identical to provisions in SB 882 (2026). TRISTAN BENSON, JR.

This provision is identical to SCS/SB 161 (2023) and to a provision in SCS/HCS/HB 154 (2023), and is substantially similar to HB 1418 (2024), HB 1464 (2024), HB 2174 (2024), HB 260 (2023), HB 452 (2023), HB 591 (2023), HB 896 (2023), HCS#2/HB 1992 (2022), HB 1817 (2022), and HB 2530 (2022), and to a provision in HB 2815 (2024), HB 2887 (2024), HB 377 (2023), HCS/HBs 876, 771, 676 & 551 (2023), HB 1136 (2023), HB 1779 (2022), and HB 2249 (2022).

SB 1154 - This act creates the "Act Against Abusive Website Access Litigation". The Attorney General, on behalf of a class of residents of this state or any resident of this state who is subject to litigation that alleges any website access violation, may file a civil action against the party, attorney, or law firm that initiated such litigation for a determination as to whether such litigation alleging a website access violation is abusive litigation. A civil action alleging a website access claim is considered abusive only if the court, based on the totality of the circumstances, finds the primary purpose of the litigation was to obtain a monetary settlement unrelated to improving accessibility or enforcing accessibility rights. The act describes the factors to be considered in making this determination. A defendant who receives notice of an alleged website accessibility violation and in good faith takes substantial steps to correct the violation within 90 days shall have a rebuttable presumption that any subsequent litigation is not abusive. The presumption may be overcome by a showing that the defendant failed to complete reasonable corrective measures within 90 days or acted in bad faith. The Attorney General may intervene or bring an action on behalf of Missouri residents that are targets of abusive website access litigation. The Attorney General may also issue guidance as to when litigation practices are deemed abusive, but such guidance shall not preclude legitimate accessibility enforcement actions. The court may award attorney's fees to the party defending against the abusive litigation. The court may also award punitive damages or sanctions not to exceed three times the amount of attorney's fees awarded by the court. If the U.S. Department of Justice issues standards concerning website accessibility under the federal Americans with Disabilities Act, the provisions of this act shall expire. This act is substantially similar to HB 1694 (2026) and is similar to SB 907 (2026), SB 1272 (2026), HB 1674 (2026), HB 1755 (2026), HB 1780 (2026), HB 1842 (2026), HB 2056 (2026), HB 2150 (2026), and HB 2312 (2026).
