Missouri Jobs with Justice

Missouri Jobs with Justice Building transformative power for social, racial, and economic justice in Missouri. Jobs with Justice is action-oriented.

During each year, members and organizations take the Jobs with Justice Pledge to "Be There" at least five times for someone else's fight as well as their own. That means joining picket lines, attending contract rallies and participating in other actions or demonstrations for economic and social justice. Pledgers are mobilized through meetings, phone banks and email alerts.

The rights we celebrate today were won by working people who stood together.

Labor Day was born out of the labor movement—a movement of workers organizing for better wages, shorter hours, safer workplaces, and a voice on the job.

Those victories weren't handed to us.

Working people organized for them. And today, that work continues.

This Labor Day, we honor the workers who came before us, the workers building power today, and everyone fighting for a Missouri where working people can thrive.
Because when working people organize, we win. ✊

Mike Kehoe says he supports children's literacy.

Here's what his statement leaves out: the budget he signed cut Missouri's funding for Dolly Parton's Imagination Library from $6 million to $2 million — a 67% cut.

Because of the reduced funding, Missouri stopped accepting new children into the program July 1. Nearly 170,000 Missouri kids had been receiving a free book every month.

Dolly believed every child deserved books. Missouri families deserve the whole story.

They care for our loved ones. They've been at the bargaining table for months. Their contract expired in May, and the employer keeps dismissing their voices. Enough.

Join Jobs With Justice in solidarity with SEIU Health Care Workers at Menorah Medical Center this Wednesday, Aug. 12, at 11 AM, 119th Street entrance.

Missouri said what it said. 💅

Last week, voters overwhelmingly rejected Amendments 4 and 5 — defending majority rule, public schools, and the power of Missourians to have a say in our own government.

Turns out standing with workers, protecting public schools, defending direct democracy, and showing up at the ballot box?

Kind of chic.

And we’re not done. ✊
