Tell Stinson Morrison Hecker: Stop Subverting Democracy and Let St. Louis Vote

lawsuit_meme.jpgToday, Stinson Morrison Hecker, an corporate law firm, on behalf of 4 clients, filed a lawsuit against the St. Louis Board of Elections and the City of St. Louis to keep the Take Back St. Louis initiative off the April 8th ballot. Stinson, working on behalf of corporations like Peabody who receive corporate welfare, are throwing any hope of a legal argument against the wall to see what sticks. 

Stinson and Peabody are subverting the democratic process and blocking conversation on an important question facing the city: will we continue to give corporate welfare to companies like Peabody or will we invest in a local sustainable economy to create green jobs? Tell them to let us have a vote!

Stinson Morrison Hecker: Drop your lawsuit against the Board of Elections and let the City of St. Louis vote on the Take Back St. Louis initiative.
