The House of Representatives could consider a "Right to Work" bill soon.
Yesterday a House committee combined three "Right to Work" bills (HBs 77, 91 and 95) and passed it out of the House Workforce Development and Workplace Safety Committee. All of these bills are directly based on model legislation distributed by the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC).
Your state representative needs to hear from you - call 888-907-9711 NOW and ask your rep to oppose both "Right to Work" and paycheck deception.
Our legislative leaders should be coming together to balance the budget,improve our schools, and create jobs. But instead, extremists are pushing this unnecessary and irresponsible right to work bill that would hurt Missouri’s middle class families, our public schools, and put our safety at risk.
These bills are part of an organized national plan to eliminate the voice of middle class workers. What's really terrifying about their campaign? CEOs and big corporations aren’t just after the pay and pensions of workers, they are trying to eliminate protections for whistleblowers who protect food safety, speak out against toxic chemicals in air and water, and waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer dollars.
Missourians have defeated "Right to Work" before - and we're going to have to work together to beat back this attack now. There's bi-partisan opposition to "Right to Work" laws, but the special interest groups are pushing hard. Make sure your state representative hears from you today. Call 888-907-9711 now to oppose "Right to Work" and Paycheck Deception.
In Solidarity,
Hugh McVey, President
Missouri AFL-CIO
