YOUR LETTERS: Vote to keep pro-union McCaskill in office, raise the minimum wage

The Labor Tribune does a good job providing readers with first class coverage of issues affecting working families – including what’s at stake in next week’s election. But if you care about the future of our country, just being a Trib reader won’t do much; you also have to vote!

Don’t forget to get to the polls on Tuesday, November 6 – and make sure your friends, do as well!

Folks in other countries put their lives on the line for the freedom to cast a ballot – let’s not squander our opportunity to keep our pro-union U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill in office and raise Missouri’s embarrassingly low minimum wage by voting for Proposition B.
We beat Right-to-Work in our state last August – so get out to the polls so we can score some more wins for working families.
