If you’d like to join the effort to stop so-called “right-to-work” in Missouri by collecting signatures on the Citizens’ Referendum petition, please plan on attending one of these upcoming sessions.
After receiving training, you will be able to go back to your local union and your community and train others to collect signatures and help by serving as a point person for collected signature pages.
To schedule a training session for your local union or in your area, contact Missouri AFL-CIO Political Director Merri Berry at 314-420-8095.
