Sample Letter Title:
Missourians do not want right to work
Sample Letter Text:
- Right to work, prevailing wage repeal and paycheck deception were not crafted with working people in mind.
- These bills are an attempt to give extremist legislators and greedy corporations more power over our communities.
- Extremist lawmakers are pushing these laws just to satisfy the out-of-touch, greedy CEOs who funded their campaign.
- Our government shouldn’t be “bought and paid for” on the backs of workers.
- These laws will silence workers’ voice on the job by destroying collective bargaining.
- In other states where right to work has been passed, workers have seen declining wages over time.
- What’s right for Missouri is what working people want.
