Missouri Republicans were able to swiftly overturn abortion rights and paid sick leave using an uncommon procedural move, sparking outrage from Democrats and advocates who say the legislature has ignored the will of the people.
In November 2024, Missouri voters passed two major ballot initiatives: Amendment 3, which reinstated abortion rights lost after the fall of Roe v. Wade, and Proposition A, which guaranteed paid sick leave for over 700,000 workers, the Missouri Independent reported.
Both passed with strong support across party lines, with Proposition A earning 58% of the vote. Since their passage, conservative lawmakers have worked to undermine or reverse the measures, citing economic concerns and ideological opposition.
Also there are a lot of misinformed voters, who were told that things like P2025 are just jokes to “trigger the left”.
Being a misinformed voter is a choice.
They are not poor victims.
They are lazy asshats that wanted to believe obvious but comfortable lies, over having to do 10 minutes of work and dealing with uncomfortable truths.
I’m sick and tired of this handwringing for the poor, willfully ignorant voters who couldnt be bothered to question a single thing, or listen to anything that challenges their preconceived notions.
Not everyone is a terminally online leftist like us. You have to sell politics to the average hillbilly, not the average leftist theory reader.
Why do they want to trigger the left
