To fight back against right-to-work, paycheck deception, attacks on prevailing wage and other anti-worker measures in the 2016 legislative session, the Missouri AFL-CIO has organized a series of front porch meetings –– member-to-member walks in various representative districts to encourage union members to contact their representatives and urge their support for working families.

For these meetings to be successful, union members need to turn out.
