Senate Majority Leaders Praise the House’s Swift Action on Right to Work
The Bill Now Awaits the Governor’s Expected Signature
“Right to Work gives Missouri the ability to encourage other businesses to move to the state. We aren’t just fighting for more jobs. We are fighting just to be on the list of consideration. Right to Work, combined with our other economic development measures we plan to pass this session, will help make Missouri more attractive to investments. I am confident after the long hours working on the legislation the governor will sign it.”
Senate Leader Ron Richard, R-Joplin
District 32
“Right to Work is the single biggest policy that can help protect workers’ freedom to choose whether a union works for them. With the governor’s signature, Missouri will become the 28th Right to Work state. I want to thank my colleagues for helping me accomplish this significant goal.”
Bill Sponsor, Sen. Dan Brown, R-Rolla
District 16
“Since the beginning of session, we have talked about making Missouri more attractive to businesses. Right to Work is an important economic tool that we can use to entice businesses to move and stay here in the Show-Me State. Today was a big win for the future of Missouri’s economic growth.”
Majority Floor Leader Mike Kehoe, R-Jefferson City
