My Republican State Representative, Jeff Farnan, voted to sign away earned sick time after it passed by nearly 58%. He doesn’t care about the will of Missouri voters.

It's not worth working for an employer that doesn't take care of their employees especially when it comes to stuff like that but it is worth robbing the f*** out of them and being brutally violent with them

So I guess he is planning not to get sick. Good luck with that given RFK Jr is Secretary of Health.

HE, Jes, has proven NOT to be there for anyone as a State Representative!... Farnan is a typical Narcissistic, Egocentric, ReTHUG Power Monger who is in the political game for HIS Own Gain not for the betterment of the people!

It's amazing how many Americans still think it somehow makes their lives better to take money away from regular people so the rich can get richer. It's like they prefer being serfs, not thinking for themselves, living on the scraps of what their "betters" allow them to have.

In Yewtaw, we all voted to undo gerrymandering and our legislature has done its best to NOT do as we voted. It passed in 2018 and it is still being fought about in court. We punished the bastards by reelecting them and letting them keep their super majority. The government we deserve, I guess?
