Bill Eigel: 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.

Michael Morgan: Our economy should offer equal pay for equal work

We need a 21st-century economy that works for everyone. Our economy should encourage entrepreneurs and investment in industries of the future. It should create jobs that pay at least a living wage. It should offer access and opportunity for everyone to improve their lives and pursue their dreams through hard work. Our economy should offer equal pay for equal work--regardless of gender, age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or sexual ID.

Bob Ferguson: Defended state's minimum wage against legal challenge

Bob is holding wage theft violators accountable with both civil and criminal prosecutions. He is the first Washington attorney general to criminally prosecute wage theft. Bob also successfully defended Washington's minimum wage and paid sick leave initiative against a legal challenge.

Bob stood up for workers at corporate franchises and increased wages by billions of dollars by eliminating illegal and unfair no-poach contracts nationwide.
