Some things haven’t changed much since 1861. Abraham Lincoln, 1861: "Labor is prior to, and independent of, capital. Capital is only the fruit of labor." Translated to 2026: labor built it. capital just put its name on it. Same fight, new century.

STLPR has been telling the story of Union Loafers, organizing for pay that keeps up with the cost of living, schedules they can plan a life around, and healthcare they can actually afford. We're building a movement, and we want you to be a part of it.

Insurers filed the hikes. The state shrugged it off as "a sign of the times." Workers get stuck with the bill. Rates lock in on Oct. 31. Follow @moworkers to know what's coming.

Missouri's insurance director, on premiums rising up to 26% in 2027: "Consumers will continue to have choices." Pay $720/mo. Pay $970. Or go without and hope nothing happens. On a small-business plan? Up to $1,000+.

Billion-dollar tech companies want to ram through water-guzzling, energy bill-hiking data centers in Missouri — without asking us. They'll profit. We'll pay the price. We've beaten this before. Only we can prevent it — and we will. 💪 #MOworkers

We’re proud to join workers with @sbworkersunited to #BoycottStarbucks until baristas win a fair union contract. We’re fed up with unchecked corporate greed and wealthy executives ignoring their workers. Let’s show Starbucks that working people stand together ➡️ buff.ly/aSGuneO

The St. Louis Board of Aldermen just backed the Loafers Union. 🍞✊ Resolution No. 136 passed UNANIMOUSLY, with the Board celebrating the courage of Union Loafers workers who organized with UNITE HERE — and calling on ownership to voluntarily recognize them.

Politicians are trying to rig the maps and confuse Missouri voters. We're not confused. The gerrymandered maps are on the ballot this November, and Missourians get the final say. Get your friends, family, and neighbors to the polls to vote NO on Prop A.

Workers hired a plane to get the University of Missouri to look up. ✈️ Paying its lowest-paid workers $19/h would cost UM about 5 cents of every $100 it spends. Its answer "not financially feasible." Budgets are about priorities. Stand with UM workers. buff.ly/uOKjjit

🧵 4/5 80% of us already said NO. Republicans, Democrats and Independents. No matter what we look like, where we're from, or how much money is in our wallets — none of us want politicians drawing themselves a guaranteed win.

Trump's EPA wants to take away your right to say anything about a data center going into your community. All a developer has to do is break a billion-dollar project into "smaller" ones. Small enough to skip the pollution limits. Small enough to skip public comment too.

More than 90% of them had already signed their cards across all three shops. The Tower Grove café, Bagel Union, and The Station What they want is simple: pay that keeps up with the cost of living, schedules that let them enjoy time with the people they love, & safe work

That's dignity & respect on & off the job: living wages, schedules a person can plan a life around, real breaks, paid sick days, and health care that's affordable. We know our worth, and we're not going anywhere #StandUpUnionLoafers #UnionLoafers #MOworkers #UnionStrong

Missouri workers give life to our communities. They're the faces we love to see at our favorite restaurants and shops. And for all their hard work they deserve the dignity and respect of a life where they can thrive, not merely survive.

Ninety-three years later, bosses still pay people differently and still hope it keeps us quiet. Workers who refuse to be divided win. Monday is Labor Day. We owe it to women like Carrie Smith and Cora Lewis, who built the American labor movement one shop at a time. #MOworkers #STL #LaborDay

It didn't. By the second morning their white coworkers were on the line with them. Five plants stopped cold. Nine days later everybody was making the same rate — and it had doubled. ✊🏻 ✊🏽 ✊🏾 ✊🏿

🗣️ "Girls, we can't lose!" Carrie Smith, St. Louis picket line, May 1933. More than a thousand Black women walked out of the Funsten nut plants that month. The boss had been paying them $1.80 a week and their white coworkers $2.75 for the same work, counting on that gap to keep everybody apart.

4️⃣ BILLS WE CAN AFFORD. For 49 years, utilities couldn't charge you for a power plant that didn't exist yet. That protection got stripped out last year. Put it back and open a real path to community solar. ⚡

Missouri Workers Center @moworkers.org · 02/09/2026
3️⃣ THEY PAY WHAT WE PAY. You pay sales tax on your kid's school supplies while Big Tech got a pass for a billion-dollar server farm. Repeal the exemption and show Missourians exactly how much we won't be giving away anymore. 💸
100
Missouri Workers Center @moworkers.org · 02/09/2026
2️⃣ RULES BEFORE MORE BUILDING. Real Public notice within 5 miles. Hard limits on how much water they can take.. Setbacks from schools, churches, and farms. Clean power > diesel. A KILLSWITCH when the grid is strained. Data centers are the first to lose power and the last to get it back.
100
Missouri Workers Center @moworkers.org · 02/09/2026
1️⃣ PRESS PAUSE. No new data centers approved or built in Missouri until real protections are written into law and the pause doesn't lift until they are.

Missouri Workers Center @moworkers.org · 02/09/2026
1 🗣️ Farmers and workers wrote a 2027 platform: pause new data centers, real rules and a grid killswitch, repeal the tax break, and stop utilities billing us for plants that don't exist yet. On Sept. 16 we're packing the Capitol rotunda with a list of demands 👇 bit.ly/Peoples-Hear...

Ask Kaldi's workers. Baristas, bakers, and back-of-house staff across St. Louis organized and WON raises, paid sick days, equipment repairs, and paid time off during a kitchen closure — and workers at one store won their union vote 💪☕

Ask Missouri workers why they wanted to unionize and you hear the same five reasons every time 👇 💵 Pay 🔒 Job security ⏱️ Conditions 🗣️ A voice ✊ Respect Our bosses have been listening for years. It changes when we come together and use our strength in numbers.
