The school's call comes mid-shift. She's sick, come get her. How much pay can you afford to lose? Missouri passed paid sick leave in 2024 so workers wouldn’t face that choice. Jeff City’s deceitful politicians repealed it. Take our power back: YES on Amendment 6, Tuesday, Nov 3.

A lot of myths about Amendment 6, and we're debunking them all. YES on 6. Tuesday, Nov 3.

In 2025, Jon Patterson's House sent $1.5 billion to the Chiefs and Royals. Then, in 2026, his House cut $51 million from child care. He can always find money. Just never for you. Reminder for Senate District 8: vote Patterson out Tuesday, Nov. 3.

1.69 million of us voted for paid sick days. Less than a year later, Jon Patterson's House repealed them. On the House floor, he called it "compromising with the people." 1.69 million voices. He heard none of them. Senate District 8, vote Tuesday, Nov. 3.

1,693,064 of us voted for paid sick days in 2024. Politicians repealed them in 2025. Amendment 6 makes it much harder to undo a law we pass: 80% of both chambers, then back to us for a vote. YES on 6, Tuesday, Nov 3.

Three measures on your ballot, Nov. 3. Here's how we're voting & why: ✅ YES on Amend 6 makes it nearly impossible for politicians to overturn laws we pass ❌ NO on Prop A to stop the gerrymandered map politicians rushed through in 2025. ❌ NO on Amendment 3 to protect abortion rights

1/2 Amendment 6, in plain terms: - Repealing a law we pass takes 80% of both chambers - Ballot summaries have to be clear, and bad ones can be fought in court - Politicians can't make petitioning harder - Majority still rules, and it costs taxpayers nothing

In August, we crushed Amendment 4 in every county. They tried to make petitioning harder. We said no. Amendment 6 makes petitioning a fundamental right and keeps the legislature from weakening it. Vote YES on Amendment 6. Tuesday, Nov. 3.

There’s never money for our schools, our buses, or building more housing. When billionaire Jon Sherman wants a new ballpark for the @KCRoyals, suddenly there's enough money.

In 2024, 1.69 million of us voted for paid sick days. In 2025, Jefferson City repealed them, led by Speaker Jon Patterson. Amendment 6 won't bring them back. It will make the next law we pass much harder for deceitful politicians like Jon Patterson to repeal. Vote YES on Amendment 6 Tues, Nov. 3.

Sick and tired of how confusing our ballot language is? Amendment 6 requires every ballot summary to be clear, fair, and accurate. If deceitful politicians write a misleading one, we can take it to court. Vote YES on Amendment 6. Tuesday, Nov. 3.

4.5 square miles of Kansas City, from the state line to Brooklyn Ave, would have its tax growth go to a billionaire's stadium instead of parks, trash pickup, and fire departments. The Mayor and Council did it without asking anyone. In April 2027, the people get the final say.

Right now, just over half the politicians in Jefferson City can erase a law we voted for. That's how we lost paid sick days. A6 raises that to 80%, and then they'd still have to bring it back to us. Vote YES on A6. Tuesday, November 3. 🗳️ #YESON6 #Amendment6 #RespectMOVoters #MissouriWorkersPower

At your job, you don't get to pick your boss. Politicians shouldn't get to pick theirs either. Prop A is Jeff City's mid-decade map, and it splits Kansas City three ways. Over 300,000 Missourians signed to put it on the ballot, and the Supreme Court ruled unanimously that we get to vote on it.

Peanut butter and jelly. Toasted ravioli and St. Louis. Missouri and voting YES on Amendment 6. Some things just go together. Like Missouri voters and having our vote actually count. Vote YES on Amendment 6 on the Missouri ballot this November 3. Register to vote in Missouri by October 7.

You told him three times: with paid sick days, the Everything Tax, and Amendment 4. Jon Patterson didn't listen once. Now he wants a seat in the State Senate. He needs to go. Vote November 3. Not in his district? Send this to someone who is. 🗳️

1/4 You voted for paid sick days. They took them away in six months. In 2024, 1.69 million of us said yes to paid sick days and raises that keep up with the cost of living. Then in 2025, Jon Patterson led the charge in Jefferson City to repeal them. Nobody asked us.

If the new Royals stadium comes up short, who pays? Not the Royals. Kansas City plans to borrow $600 million for the ballpark and pay it back with tax money that doesn't exist yet. If that money never shows up, the Royals have "no obligation to repay." The city does. That means us.

We keep having to explain this one, so here it is plainly. In 2025 Missouri politicians redrew our congressional map because Trump asked them to. Same legislature that threw out the paid sick days we voted for in 2024.

Ernest Calloway refused to treat the union card and the ballot as 2 separate fights. So his union didn't stop at the shop floor: Local 688 trained hundreds of community stewards members who organized at work, then went home and organized their own block. He called it total person unionism.
