A referendum petition was filed a few short hours after Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens signed a bill into law, making Missouri the country’s 28th “right-to-work” state. The referendum petition will freeze the law and put it on the ballot in 2018. The law forces unions to allow people to opt out of paying union dues while still receiving representation and all the benefits of a union contract.
Organizers for the referendum petition have until August 28 to gather roughly 90,000 signatures, 5 percent of voters from two-thirds of Missouri’s congressional districts.
