🚨 The MO Supreme Court just upheld Prop A — #paidsick days are here to stay.

But HB 567, a bill in #moleg will repeal the #paidsick time we just secured. Let's celebrate this moment but we have to keep fighting.

“When the people are united they can do anything. And they were united, and they spoke loud and clear.” — Senator Karla May. Senator Barbara Washington echoed her support.💬

Missourians voted for #paidsick and a higher minimum wage. It wasn't a gift. #moleg ##HandsOffPropA

Wow but no paid leave or paid sick to take care of the children. #paidleave #paidsick #paidmaternityleave
The Trump administration is assessing ways to persuade women in the U.S. to have more children, as a movement grows on the right to reverse declining birthrates and push conservative family values. Some pitched ideas include cash baby bonuses and menstrual cycle classes. nyti.ms/4jh3UAR

🚨LIVE: When 1.6 million people vote for something, you’d think lawmakers would listen.
Instead, they sided with corporate lobbyists over Missouri workers.
That’s why we’re here today @moworkers.org

"Paid sick days is a policy that workers deserve. We knew what we were voting on, and Missouri workers spoke clearly about their demands and having an economy that works for them."

Voters overwhelmingly approved #PaidSick leave and these state legislators want to roll it back?? Bad politics and terrible policy. apnews.com/article/paid...
Voters resoundingly backed paid sick leave. Now lawmakers in 3 states want to roll back the benefits
Voters in Alaska, Missouri and Nebraska overwhelmingly approved paid sick leave laws last year. Now some lawmakers in those states are trying to roll back the benefits before they begin.

Stories like Andi’s are why we fought so hard to pass #PaidSick through Prop A. Now politicians in #moleg are trying to take it away with HB 567.

This is the last week of session and its all hands on deck!

"Alaska was not the only state where voters in November approved a mandate for paid sick leave. Similar initiatives passed in Missouri and Nebraska." #paidsick
Bill seeks to cover fewer workers with paid sick leave recently approved by Alaska voters
Alaska’s voter-approved mandate for paid sick leave has not yet gone into effect, but some lawmakers are already trying to reduce the number of workers who would benefit from it.
