Statement by Missouri AFL-CIO President Mike Louis on the 2016 Gubernatorial Election:
“It’s a sad day for working Missourians. With the election of Eric Greitens the security of our livelihoods is being threatened. Good jobs, decent pay, safe work places are all at risk of disappearing. The labor movement won’t let that happen. Time and time again in the history of the labor movement, we have overcome tough challenges. This will be no different. We won’t let the ruling elite and the Goliath out-of-touch corporate interests silence the voices of the Missouri’s working people. We will stand together, create coalitions with allied community groups and legislators and fight for a better life for all Missourians.”
