Governor praises right-to-work before protestors gather in Jefferson City
One day before protestors planned to gather at the state Capitol in Jefferson City, Gov. Eric Greitens says Missouri’s new Right to Work legislation is working well.
The governor spoke at the 65th annual Governor’s Ham Breakfast at the Missouri State Fair on Thursday. He talked about a number of issues including recent violence in Charlottesville, Virginia.
He spent the last few minutes of his time talking about right-to-work. He said businesses around the United States and across the globe have taken notice that Missouri is “open for business again.”
The governor’s comments came on the eve of a right-to-work protest planned for Friday morning in Jefferson City. The rally is scheduled for 10 a.m., and protestors will be rallying to repeal the legislation.
