Welcome to the latest episode of "Under the Dome" by Empower Missouri, where we delve into the happenings in Jefferson City with a special focus on our long-standing anti-poverty initiatives. Having spearheaded evidence-based public policy to end poverty for over a century, we lead coalitions on matters such as affordable housing, criminal justice reform, and food security, while supporting initiatives in wages, health care, child care, and voting rights.
In this episode, join Advocacy Director Sarah Owsley and some members of our team as they break down the start of the new legislative session. Listen in as they tackle pressing issues like the contentious proposed state control of the St. Louis Police Department and the alarming new riot-definition laws. Our team also sheds light on the critical source of income discrimination discussions impacting housing rights in Missouri.
Stay tuned as we share insights from our experiences at the Capitol, discuss impactful testimonies and legal debates, and keep you informed on the strategic initiatives for housing justice and community reforms. And Lucas' lunch count.
