Factcheck SquareOffs

.Not just for politicians and rockstars anymore. Even us peons can be trusted if we pay for it.

Absolutely! Shorter lines, no taking off shoes or removing bottles. I travel seldom, but even for one trip, especially traveling thru a really busy airport, like NY, ATL, it is completely worth $85.

Yes! Shorter lines, no removing shoes. The Global Entry is a big time-saver for returning to the USA.

It works well and helps speed you through security. We only made it through Customs and TSA in time to make our domestic connection because we had Precheck/Global Entry on one trip,

The state of Missouri ranks dead last in teacher pay and state worker pay across the country. State workers, like me, are handed heavy workloads and have immense responsibilities in our work. While I love my job it is drastically overdue for state workers to recieve a raise to retain good employees.

You want services, the LEAST you can do is 1.5 percent below current inflation. They need more than 5.5 or it just kicks the can a few months down the road.

Yes they should. But it has to be greater than 7% inflation rate (and 7% is a bogus number.)

Corrections is the largest dept in the state. Yet they're the second lowest paid corrections dept of every state and has the 8th highest inmate population. They desperately need a raise

State employees are essential to keep the state going. Wages are going up every where the state should follow suit.

Because we are one of the lowest paid out of all 50 states and it is hard for us to find or keep good employees at our current salary.

I am a state employee. 12 is not enough for the work we do

Court clerks make on average just minimum wage. Some have 20+ years and not just anyone can step in and do their jobs if they leave. Treating our MoDot like their dispensable is deplorable. They actually risk their lives and take constant training to do their job.

As a state employee I can honestly say it is necessary if they wish for me to continue working for the State of Missouri. It is not a favor to give me a raise, but a requirement at this point. It is long overdue and will not be swept under the rug.

It's time that the public servants of this state had pay commensurate with other states this is why we cannot keep employees. When seasoned long term state workers can go to work at Walmart and make more money it's time to do something about the problem.

Mo has the #4 state park in the us.everyone that visits says how nice our parks are but we are almost at the bottom of the pay scale nation wide.

Yes,definitly
