Missouri Workers Power
@moworkerspower.org
Low-wage workers building a multi-racial movement with the political power to win a Missouri — and America — that works for all of us.
Last we checked this is still a democracy, and the voters deserve the final say to keep it that way — on the Royals stadium ballot initiative already certified by the City Clerk. Join us and make your voice heard by sending an email to your CM here: bit.ly/4pMJ28L
💥BREAKING💥 We defeated Amendments 4 and 5!!! We said NO to an attack on majority rule. We said NO to the Everything Tax. We said NO to deceitful politicians like Governor Kehoe and House Speaker Patterson rigging the game.
And that's why we're saying NO ON AMENDMENT 5 TODAY!
IT'S ELECTION DAY!!!!! Polls open at 6am and close at 7pm - BUT if you're in line when they close, you're voting. Period. Get there early. Get in line. And once you're there, stay there. Nobody can make you leave. Not the poll workers, not the weather, NOTHING. No on 4 No on 5!
Arianna is here to tell you why we need to vote NO on both A4 & A5 because she wants Missouri to be a place we all can live, work, and build a life. 🗳️✊🏾 #VoteNoOn5 #voteNoOn4
Find your polling place for tomorrow - no excuses now — you know exactly where to go. Vote NO on 4 and 5. Bring someone with you. The many will defeat the money. Send this to that friend who needs to know. #FightBackMO #NoOn4 #NoOn5 #Missouri #ShowMeState #August4
Amendment 4 is a power grab—plain and simple. One district making decisions for an entire state? That's not how democracy works. That's how working people get steamrolled. Amendment 4 is untenable. Vote NO. 🔴 #Amendment4NO #MissouriWorkers #VoteNO
Arianna knocked doors and gathered signatures to win minimum wage and paid sick leave for Missouri workers back in '24. Amendment 4 would make direct ballot measures nearly impossible, and Amendment 5 would raise prices on working families She’s here to tell you why we need to vote NO on both 🗳️✊🏾
These are just a few of the dedicated folks who have been working hard to get the message out all across Missouri 🧡 They’re your neighbors, veterans, the people who serve your food and care for your family. And they’re all asking you to do one thing: 🗳️ Vote NO on Amendment 5 🚫
If THIS sound annoyed you, imagine one district making every decision for the entire state and you having absolutely zero say. 🗳️ Vote NO on Amendment 4. Tag someone in your life who's tired of being powerless. Vote NO on Amendment 4 #VoteNoAmendment4 #MissouriWorkers#GetOutTheVote
"They gotta make the money up somehow" That's Anthony an Amazon worker, and leader with Missouri Workers Power, explaining how Amendment 4 & 5 will take toll working folks daily and how they're a disregard of your rights. Vote NO by August 4th. #MissouriWorkers #VoteNO #Amendment4 #Amendment5
Bill Thompson doesn't mince words. The Everything Tax is going to land hardest on the back of working folks. With higher taxes everyday stuff: haircuts, oil changes, a trip to the dentist. Vote NO on Amendment 5 by August 4. Last week. One door at a time. Let's go. 👉 bit.ly/4x6KdlY #VoteNoOn5
If Amendment 5 passes, we'll be paying a higher sales tax on everything we do. Brenda knows Amendment 4 doesn't just raise taxes. It makes life unaffordable for working Missourians. Raising the cost of Rent. Groceries. Childcare, the list goes on. 🔴 Vote NO on Amendment 5. 🔴 #Amendment5NO
"It sure seems, this being a democracy and all that the people should have a say in the allocation of such a colossal chunk of their tax dollars." Check out some highlights here, or read the whole thing. www.royalsreview.com/kansas-city-... Either way you can't miss, like Massey.
Tommy from Brookside says it plain : A handful of people shouldn’t get to overrule the whole state. That’s not how democracy works here. Majority rules — not a small group with a veto. 🗳️ Vote NO on Amendment 4 — Tuesday, August 4. SIGN UP TO CANVASS - bit.ly/4x6KdlY #FightBackMO
8 days to prove Missouri belongs to its people. We turned out 700 Missourians across five cities. We knocked on thousands of doors. We made the news. Now we close. These are the voices behind every knock on the door. This week, we make sure they're heard at the ballot box for August 4.
There are times I've had to cut my prescription pills in half because I can't always afford the refill." Who else can relate to Richard Eiker? A McDonalds worker for decades. Say what too many of us already know: this system is rigged, and we're done waiting for someone to fix it. 🧵 1/3
118 years. Missourians have had the power to write our own constitution — no politicians required. Now they want to take it away. 🧵 1/3
🎼We got the news 🎶we got the facts 🎶We say NO 🎶 to the everything tax 🎶 Missouri workers power has just dropped the new song of the summer. Bump it. And most importantly VOTE NO on Amendment 5 - the everything tax (and of course No on A4 too) #VoteNoOnA5 #VoteNoOnA4 #MissouriVotes #August4th
There are times I've even had to cut my prescription medication pills in half because I can't always afford the refill. Richard Eiker has worked at McDonald's for decades. Telling us his truth and why we need come out enmass against Amendment 4 & 5 on August 4th. 🧵 1/3
The KC Star just said what we've been saying for months. Read it. Share it. And then tell one person who still needs to hear it. NO on Amendment 5
Nearly 700 Missouri workers showed up in five cities and knocked thousands of doors. Across Five cities. One Hot Saturday. August 4th is eighteen days away. Today was the proof we're ready. #AllInForMissouri #GOTV
Rally's done. Now we hit the streets 🚪 500 canvassers are on the doors right now — block by block, neighbor to neighbor, across five cities. Time to show ‘em what being from the Show Me State means. #AllInForMissouri #GOTV
SEIU. LIUNA. IBEW. When working people stand together, nobody can stop them. This isn't a moment — this is a movement carrying decades of history on its back and walking straight into the future.
“We want to work and live without worrying, to afford the things we need, and maybe even have a little left over to actually enjoy our lives. To go out to a nice dinner, to go to the movies, to go on a family vacation. — Richard Eiker, McDonald’s worker and Missouri Workers Power leader
John Lewis challenged each of us to get into “good trouble, necessary trouble.” Good trouble wasn’t about causing division, it was about standing up peacefully for justice, protecting democracy, and making sure every voice could be heard. —Duan Gavel, VP Springfield NAACP #AllInForMissouri #GOTV
When Amazon breaks somebody’s body, Amazon doesn’t pay for it. We do...through the safety net that Missourians voted for with our own hands. Amendment 5 takes a wrecking ball to the money that pays for all of it. — Sena Snipes, Amazon STL8 worker and MWP leader #AllInForMissouri #GOTV
