It's not just sleeping, its defecating, starting forest fires, setting buildings on fire, littering, stealing shopping carts, drug use, crime, untreated mental illness. All of these things are bad for society, especially the so called homeless, and must end. Liberals are not helping situation. FJB

Like the typical engineering school graduate hypocrite that you are, you sit there and complain about this yet you are an avid supporter of the universities, athletic programs and defend the over educated technical nerds that come from that engineering school there.

Zaos Gonzolez

That would require a convention of states. Good luck with that.

Bill Douglas

Since this is a college town, start holding the alumni accountable for being the overeducated Computer programming, coffee shop nerds that they are. Find out which state government agency they work for and start filing complaints against Their professional licenses. Start boycotting athletic events

Frank Jung

Does that include sitting on a bench and dozing off?

Belinda Kitchen

Nope, but it would be a help if rent would be affordable and people could actually get jobs instead of discrimination against them . And it would definitely help against crime and stuff.

Libs really want 30 hours of sick time for 1 hour work called Univ Basic Income. This is a great example of an organic Missouri effort to change our Constitution, you can tell by the homemade signs. NOT, another dark money effort to buy an amendment when they fail in legislature. End this BS. FJB

Stephanie Vandas Andersen

Paid leave is good for families and employers--it helps attract and retain the best talent, reducing employee turnover costs, and helps alleviate financial strain on families. It's a win-win.

Paid sick leave is needed for all workers. How can you pay medical bills if you aren't getting paid while you are sick or recovering from surgery?

Richard Von Glahn

No one should have to choose between taking care of themselves or a child and missing a pay check. This is an obvious yes.

Small Missouri employers have enough problems just meeting their payrolls. More government intrusion is not the answer.

Rick Smith

You think prices are high now. Wait until they raise them some more if this passes.

Zaos Gonzolez

If you don't want to be an employee, START A BUSINESS. If you can't start a business, LEAVE BOONE COUNTY. It's quite simple.

Harry D

Businesses will leave not only Boone County but Missouri if this passes. Businesses will also try extra hard to automate and replace people with AI robots to keep their costs down. The problem with marxist socialists is that they ultimately run out of other people's money.

You accepted the benefits or lack there of when you accepted the job. If they offer overtime see if you can store all or part of your hours for unforeseen circumstances. If not look for a company that provides leave and quit trying to force small businesses out.
