Affirmative Action YOU DID IT!  Missouri Jobs with Justice
Leaders Save Affirmative Action!
 
Coalition turns away Ward Connerly and his paid political operatives.

Missouri Jobs with Justice, working as part of the broader WE CAN coalition, won a tremendous victory when the deceptively named Missouri "Civil Rights" Initiative failed to turn in signatures which would have placed a constitutional ban on affirmative action on the November ballot.

Missouri Jobs with Justice coordinated a three-month volunteer crew of voter educators including Cathy Goldstein and Palmer Alexander pictured here. Hundreds of voter educators combed the streets of their communities, day in and day out, to find petitioners. Once they found petitioners, educators stood alongside them and made sure voters knew exactly what the deceptively-named "Missouri Civil Rights Initiative" would do to Missouri.

 

Volunteers logged well over a thousand hours educating voters, and JwJ leaders spent hundreds more desiging the campaign to protect our constitution and affirmative action policies.  Often, petitioners gave up signature gathering on a site when they encountered our volunteers.  When they learned the real intention behind the petition, Missouri voters throughout the state declined to sign, saying no to these paid political operatives and their designs on Missouri's constitution.

Jobs with Justice worked in coalition with Missouri ACORN whose voter educators also worked throughout the state to complement the volunteer crews. Other WE CAN Coalition partners helped in the streets and spearheaded community education efforts such as public forums, a speakers bureau and press conferences throughout the campaign.

Facing millions of dollars in outside money and hundreds of paid political operatives, Jobs with Justice leaders took action, made a significant time commitment and preserved our constitution and our democracy.  Congratulations on this incredible victory!

Leaders form Kansas City Jobs with Justice and Missouri Jobs with Justice to build power for future victories

After months of meetings and statewide discussions among community, faith, labor and student leaders, a Kansas City Jobs with Justice was formed in January 2008.  Further, leaders from the local coalitions in Kansas City and St Louis joined representatives from other communities in the state to forAm a Missouri Jobs with Justice steering committee, ensuring that the vibrant local coalition work throughout the state would add up to power in Jefferson City on behalf of economic justice and workers' rights.

The St Louis Leadership Team and Organizing committee deliberated very seriously pros and cons before voting to help form and join a statewide Jobs with Justice coalition.

"We had the option of just sticking with the strength and organization we've built with our 9 years of organizational history and many victories in St Louis, " said Joan Suarez, St Louis JwJ Workers' Rights Board Co-Chair, chair of Missouri Immigrant and Refugee Advocates and veteran UNITE HERE leader. "But if there's one thing we've learned in those 9 years it's that St Louis can't win for working people in Jefferson City on our own."

It was the need to win on state-level issues like health care, minimum wage, and public employee collective bargaining that spurred many of the Missouri Jobs with Justice leaders to come together.

Mark Baker has his hands full as president of the Cape Girardeau Central Trades and Labor Council and a representative for IBEW Local 702, but he makes the time to provide important leadership to the Missouri JwJ Steering Committee.

"In Jobs with Justice, we are about winning.  This isn't about hanging out, throwing up a picket now and then and feeling good about ourselves," said Baker recently in remarks to the annual meeting of the St Louis Workers' Rights Board. "We're down for the serious business of figuring out how to win and build a better state together."

Some Kansas City leaders began discussing their interest in a Kansas City Jobs with Justice chapter after the victorious campaign to raise the minimum wage in 2006.

"In that campaign I saw the powerhouse we can be in Kansas City when labor, community and faith groups work together with strong organization," said Bridgette Williams, president of the Greater Kansas City AFL-CIO and a founder of the Kansas City Jobs with Justice Start-Up Committee.

Building organization through effective campaigns has been the hallmark of building JwJ throughout the country and Kansas City is no exception.  So this year's recently victorious campaign to save affirmative action has brought the pieces of a solid steering committee together in Kansas City One new and very important Kansas City partner from the affirmative action campaign was the Urban League.  "The Urban League of Greater Kansas City is joining JwJ because coordinated, collaborative advocacy and focused activism are effective strategies for advancing social and economic justice," said Gwen Grant, President and CEO of the Urban League of Greater Kansas City.  "JwJ is an excellent vehicle through which diverse organizations can work together to achieve common goals."

This hunger for increasingly powerful collaboration is shared by other KC JwJ founders:  "Kansas City begs for a social justice movement that employs shared values, effective planning and accountable action," said Garry Kemp, leader of the Kansas City Building and Construction Trades Council.

Be part of the movement!  Build the base of Jobs with Justice activists in your area by signing folks onto the Jobs with Justice pledge to "Be There" five times a year for someone else's fight as well as your own, because when enough of us are there you'll all start winning. (request pledge cards from the Missouri Jobs with Justice office at 314.644.0466 or use the website, www.stl-jwj.org/involved/)

"JwJ, because of its strong vision, clear principles, and the great leadership, helps people who have known each other for years as well as total newcomers work together in refreshingly new ways," said Judy Ancel from the Institute for Labor Studies at University of Missouri Kansas City.

 

Other Victories

 New Era Cap Workers

  There are times when Jobs with Justice calls with a request as simple as "please, come to this store and hand out a flyer for an hour."  Sometimes you might wonder how something that simple could really be making a difference.

  One cold morning last December dozens of JwJ members answered that call from the Teamsters National Black Caucus to hand out flyers at local Foot Locker stores in support of 45 New Era Cap workers organizing with Teamsters Local 991 in Mobile, Alabama. They faced an uphill fight against low benefits, poor wages and rude and discriminatory treatment. Despite firings of 24 activists and supporters, this workforce of mostly African-American women stuck together and voted the union in, only to find that the company was committed to a process of surface bargaining and firing of union supporters.

The workers knew their only power would be to organize the other 800 New Era factory workers in two other plants in Alabama, and to focus public attention on New Era's behavior. Through help from the national NAACP, United Students Against Sweatshops and numerous Jobs with Justice Chapters, the Mobile New Era Teamsters were able to persuade New Era to negotiate significant improvements which also included provisions for union access to workers, speedy elections and employer neutrality in New Era's non-union plants.

Both plants are now organized under the neutrality agreement – one represented by the Teamsters and the by CWA, which worked with the Teamsters during final negotiations and which represents the remaining New Era plant located near Buffalo, New York.

This campaign for justice at New Era Cap demonstrates how a courageous fight for a first contract for 100 workers eventually became a successful effort to organize the entire 900-person non-union workforce of a company.

 

 Minimum Wage for Tipped Workers        

Even when we win, we cannot rest – as evidenced by the unceasing efforts to undermine wages for servers in Missouri.  Jobs with Justice continues to fight to enforce the minimum wage at restaurants, including a three-month legal wrangle with Fleming’s Steak House this year to ensure they lived up to their obligation to pay back-pay to their servers.  Our 2006 minimum wage victory also saw a legislative attack led by Senator John Loudon (R-St Louis County) which sought to repeal the minimum wage increase for servers.  Since the passage of Proposition B Missouri law states servers earn a minimum of half the minimum wage as a “base wage” regardless of tips.  That wage is $3.32 currently.  Loudon’s bill would have rolled servers back to $2.13 per hour, the same wage they earned in 1996.

JwJ Faith Committee Gears Up for 2008 Labor in the Pulpits Program

 For the past two years, the St. Louis Area Jobs with Justice Faith Committee has coordinated the nationally run Interfaith Worker Justice program, Labor in the Pulpits, for the St. Louis metro area, and various other parts of the state.  In the past two years, the Faith Committee has engaged over 42 congregations in this work.

On Labor Day weekend, in cities across the country, thousands of congregations participate in Labor in the Pulpits/ on the Bimah/ on the Minbar.  The goals of the program are to educate congregations about the connections between faith and work, present congregations with opportunities for action on the social teachings of their faith, and to give union members a deeper experience of their faith in action. 

Each year, the faith committee of Jobs with Justice prepares materials focused around a current workers' rights theme effecting the local community.  In past years, the program has concentrated on both raising the minimum wage (2006) and the plight of immigrant workers (2007). 

This year, with nearly 800,000 Missourians living without health insurance, the theme will concentrate on how the realities of the health care system are impacting the thousands of working families in Missouri.  To garner this focus, the faith committee has partnered with the Missouri Health Care For ALL coalition, a growing movement of faith and community leaders fighting for quality, affordable, accessiblehealthcare in the state of Missouri.

Members of the Jobs with Justice Faith Committee include:  The Rev. Teresa Mithen and The Rev. Tommie Pierson (co-chairs), Jerry Hochsztein, Rhona Lyons, The Rev. Audrey Hollis, The Rev. Beverly Stith, The Rev. James T. Morris, The Rev. Walter Maddox, Bishop Anthony Taylor, and Katrina Molnar. 

For more information on hosting a Labor in the Pulpits event at your place of worship, please contact Katrina Molnar at Jobs with Justice, (314) 644-0466 x 13 or at katrina@stl-jwj.org.  Labor in the Pulpits is coordinated locally by the Faith Committee of Jobs with Justice and nationally by Interfaith Worker Justice.
