(In 2009 Missouri Jobs with Justice sent 13 servers to Jefferson City to stop the bill that threaten the minimum wage for servers. Pictured to the right)

 In 2006, 76.4% of Missourians voted to pass Proposition B to raise the wage for ALL Missouri workers, including tipped employees.

Now, Senate Bill 889 threatens to roll back the minimum wage for tipped employees to that of 16 years ago.

We must act NOW! Tell the Missouri State Senate that the citizens of Missouri want to protect the wages of 53,240 tipped employees.

We need you to TAKE ACTION RIGHT NOW:

1) Tell your Senator that you support waiters and waitresses and oppose Senate Bill 889

2) Tell your friends

3) Make whatever donation you can to make sure Jobs with Justice and its leaders can help servers throughout Missouri protect their minimum wage

4) Join the "Save Our Tips" Facebook group and stay informed
