COLUMBIA — The Missouri Supreme Court upheld Proposition A in a decision issued Tuesday. Missouri voters passed Proposition A in November, which raises the minimum wage and requires paid sick leave. The law goes into effect May 1. Prior to Election Day, the ballot measure gained support including over 135 Missouri-based organizations and more than 500 Missouri businesses. The court's ruling focuses on Proposition A's summary statement and fiscal note, which appeared on the ballot.
