Balance The Scales

Missourians across the state are joining together to hold the #moleg and the corporate scoundrels who are rigging the system unfairly accountable.

Shameful.

This is shocking. Unsealed documents show Johnson & Johnson helped fund a study 50 years ago that involved injecting asbestos into mostly Black inmates https://t.co/buKSZg566d

GREAT NEWS: This settlement means that local governments and public health departments will work with the nonprofits who battle the opioid epidemic on city streets and in rural areas to decide how this money gets to those who need it most. https://t.co/DHHeNtPjsp

Is an arbitrary statute of limitations harmful to Missourians? Yes. Yes, it is. https://t.co/YZShdclkcD

People getting these (eviction) judgments have defenses oftentimes… including that the living conditions were deplorable or that the landlord hasn’t been responding to repeated complaints. But no one was there to help them with that.

Kansas City residents will soon have the right to an attorney in #eviction proceedings; Heartland Center for Jobs and Freedom led research behind KC’s new right-to-counsel legislation #KCMO #moleg #mogov via @Rebeccarivas

Cars are deadlier for women than they are for men, and NHTSA has the authority to require manufacturers use the most up-to-date crash test dummies available, including those that represent females. So, why won’t they?https://t.co/RyG77wCGlq

It's the last week of the 2021 Missouri Legislative session. Who do you think the #moleg is going to fight for?

After corporations refused to provide workers with proper PPE or safe working condition, workers got sick on the job. Now these same corporations are refusing to pay workers' compensation leaving many suffering under medical bills. #moleg https://t.co/LHbvdtJlM3

Tell the #moleg to stop protecting corporations and put families first.

[Balance The Scales @BalanceScalesMO]

The #moleg is trying to protect corporations when they provide shoddy care rather than the Missouri families who are getting hurt.

Tell your legislators to allow Missouri families to hold wrongdoers accountable. https://t.co/7R9VfUFBcq

Metallic mesh in children's gummy vitamins? Where is the accountability? https://t.co/YV7e2jBvLm

#ICYMI: Millions of vaccines were ruined at a Baltimore Johnson & Johnson plant when unsanitary working conditions were discovered. https://t.co/fSwZAMUsZ1

Moving quickly is no excuse for poor working conditions, ignoring procedures, or undertrained staff. Johnson & Johnson facilities producing the COVID vaccine must do better. https://t.co/gzLrWCSw3u

So many families purchased at-home exercise equipment over the last year. Are companies so excited by their soaring sales that they're willing to put profits over our safety? https://t.co/JB0YwucsVr

[Balance The Scales @BalanceScalesMO]

Missouri families MUST be able to hold corporations accountable!

[Balance The Scales @BalanceScalesMO]

Corporations will always protect their bottom line first, even when it comes to children's safety. The #moleg must not change our ability to hold them accountable.

[Balance The Scales @BalanceScalesMO]

Fractured bones left uncared for, wounds left untreated to the point of maggot infestation.

Missouri families must be able to hold corporations accountable for their wrongdoings. Tell the #moleg to vote NO on SB 51 & 42 >> https://t.co/6jcsVZKl81

All workers - no matter their race - deserve their day in court.

Even after a jury said they had to pay Bader Farms $265 million, Monsanto & BASF tried to say they weren't responsible. https://t.co/WluyZpnLye
