Defund all government DEI-based positions and programs

These so called DEI training programs and positions are based on a lie. The lie is that by defining and treating people differently based on their sex, race, or religion, we can somehow expect better outcomes in terms of performance, morale, and government efficiency. Only in the most woke, liberal, leftist and Marxist visions of America would this make any kind of sense. Therefore, as Governor, I would immediately defund all DEI-based positions and programs across Missouri government. Source: 2024 Missouri Gubernatorial campaign website BillEigel.com , May 24, 2023

Right to work: Allow workers to opt out of joining a union

Coverage of SB19 by TheHill.com: Gov. Eric Greitens (R) signed legislation that will allow workers to opt out of joining a union, the latest victory for business groups in their nationwide war with labor unions. Greitens signed the so-called right-to-work bill at an abandoned warehouse in Springfield. Labor groups protested at the state capitol last week, after the Republican-led state legislature passed right-to-work legislation. But Greitens kept his promise made on the campaign trail to sign the bill into law.

"The states that have passed [right-to-work laws] in the last few years have shown unemployment drop considerably," said the bill's lead sponsor. Union groups plan to use a ballot measure to reverse the new law.

Legislative outcome: Passed House 100-59-1 on Feb/2/17; passed Senate 21-12-1 on Jan. 26; State Sen. Eigel voted YES; signed by Gov. Greitens on Feb. 6
