QUESTION OF THE DAY: Were paid sick leave requirements too burdensome for employers?

Gov. Mike Kehoe on Thursday rolled back a major change to Missouri employment law.

Kehoe signed legislation that will repeal the mandate that employers provide paid sick leave under Proposition A, which voters approved last year. Many business interests opposed the measure when it was on the ballot and argued after its passage that it was unconstitutional.

They also called the requirements for providing sick leave and keeping records too burdensome for businesses.

Because Proposition A was a law and not a constitutional amendment, the Republican-led Missouri General Assembly was able to overrule it with its own bill.
