Protect MO Families

Debating in MO Senate. 1 in 3 Missouri working parents don’t get paid sick days. They are forced to choose between their paycheck and their family's financial stability. Staying home means missing prescriptions, food, or rent. Politicians should NOT overturn Prop A. #ProtectPropA

Last November, Missourians from all walks of life put working families first when we passed Proposition A. #MOLeg needs to respect the will of the people and keep their hands OFF #PaidSickDays and #FairWages.

Wage Theft and Worker Misclassification are hurting working families. Worker Misclassification costs an average construction worker $16,729 annually in wages and benefits. #StopWageTheft epi.org/publication/co…

#PaidSickDays and #FairWages are on the ballot. Make sure that you head to your local polling place and vote YES on Proposition A to stand up for a stronger, healthier Missouri! @mohealthyfam

Did you know that 1 in 3 Missourians don’t have access to #PaidSickDays? That’s exactly why we are knocking on doors to get out the vote for Proposition A to bring earned #PaidSickDays to MO and #RaiseTheWage to $15/hr by 2026. Canvass with us! » mojwj.org/upcoming-event…

Some employers intentionally misclassify workers to help their own bottom line. This cheats workers out of wages and benefits. businessinsider.com/misclassifying…

Last Monday was International Workers' Day, and across the world, workers took action to demand what they deserve! pbs.org/newshour/world…

Next Saturday (May 13th) is annual Letter Carriers' Food Drive! You can stamp out hunger by leaving out non-perishable food items in a bag by your mailbox.

Workers won back $835,000 after a company INTENTIONALLY misclassified employees as independent contractors to avoid providing them sick leave and other employment benefits. #StopTaxFraud oag.dc.gov/release/ag-sch…

Just think about how many workers would benefit if that $400 million came to our families. epi.org/publication/un…

Working families in Missouri are stronger with unions!

Kids these days.... 👏 npr.org/2023/04/11/116…

Corporations are only looking out for themselves and their bottom line – not workers.

"Changes to a citizen initiative process that functions as designed are not only unnecessary, they’re flagrantly undemocratic. You can thank them for finally being honest, but it’s time to tell legislators to back off." news-leader.com/story/opinion/…

Want safety on the job? Better wages? A weekend? Thank a union worker.

We stopped Missouri from becoming a right to work state because we, the people, stood up and put in the work. Now #moleg is trying to take that tool away from us to silence the voice of working families. TAKE ACTION NOW » actionnetwork.org/petitions/dema…
