Plumbers & Pipefitters Local Union #178

Good morning, Missouri. We’ve been up all night holding the floor to stop the GOP plan to WEAKEN YOUR VOTE. Under their plan, your vote could count LESS than someone else’s. Senate Democrats are rested & ready to stand as long as it takes to protect your voice at the ballot box.

Don't let past restrictions hold you back—seize the chance to explore new opportunities, improve your lives, and find a shop that values your skills and contributions.

Moreover, non-compete agreements can limit competition in the industry, leading to less innovation and higher prices for consumers. Now that non-compete agreements are null and void, HVAC techs have an opportunity to change your working situation.

Non-compete agreements have been used by unethical HVAC/R employers for far too long. These agreements would trap techs into staying at an employer, even when they were offered better pay and wages from another company. x.com/MorePerfectUS/…

Today is World Plumbing Day, but we are here plumbing the world every day!

Republicans in Missouri have said their #1 priority for 2024 is to end 'one person, one vote' by making it harder for Missourians to have a say in how their state operates. Now, the GOP is saying the quiet part out loud. Listen for yourself:

A little louder for those in the back!
