Kansas Citians are demanding a city, state, and country that puts WORKERS like us over BILLIONAIRES like Royals owner John Sherman.

Take 2 minutes now to help us flood lawmakers’ inboxes, demand they reject the Everything Tax Scam, and let them know we’re taking note of who they *really* serve!

Certain lawmakers want to shield the wealthy from paying their fair share.
They want to steal away funding from Medicaid, public schools, and other services Missourians rely on. But this tax scheme still needs to pass through the House before moving any further.
While most of us were asleep, MO senators voted late last night to hike our sales taxes by 400% at the checkout line! But there’s still time to block Speaker Patterson’s Everything Tax Scam.
Email your House rep NOW to demand they vote no:

We beat their 2024 stadium sales tax by using our overwhelming strength in numbers.
Now let’s flood City Council’s meeting, show them KC doesn’t want corporate handouts, and beat this scheme once and for all!

#MOworkers #RoyalTaxScam
After we flooded yesterday’s Finance Committee meeting, Council Members got NERVOUS.
They see KC workers and community members don’t want to lose over $1 billion in taxpayer money just so billionaire Royals owner John Sherman profits!
Thought Tax Day couldn’t get worse? KCMO City Council is voting TOMORROW on the Royal Tax Scam 🙄
Come pack their meeting and demand they vote NO! Wear red, and meet us on the 26th floor at 414 E 12th St:

They don’t want us to vote. So we’re taking action on May Day right at the site they want to turn into a stadium with OUR money.
See you Friday, May 1, at Washington Square Park (100 E Pershing Rd): bit.ly/kcmayday2026

Mayor Quinton Lucas, Mayor Pro Tem Ryana Parks-Shaw, Councilman Wes Rogers, Councilman Crispin Rea, and SIX City Council members have a sneaky plan to starve KC of $1 billion that could go to healthcare, public transit, and schools — while billionaire owner John Sherman profits!
📢 NOTHING ABOUT US, WITHOUT US. 📢
KC workers and residents are flooding City Council’s first Finance Committee hearing on the Royal Tax Scam!
We voted down the KC Royals stadium sales tax in 2024. Now we’re going to finish the job once and for all!
We’re using our strength in numbers to SHUT DOWN this tax scheme and remind our electeds that OUR dollars should fund OUR schools, healthcare, and transit systems — not a billionaire’s playground.
Share this with your coworkers, family, and friends!
#MOworkers #RoyalTaxScam
In 2024, an overwhelming majority of Kansas Citians voted NO ❌ on the Royals’ plan to raise sales taxes for their stadium.
Now, city leaders are pushing a similar proposal that will dump more than $1 billion of OUR taxpayer money for a corporate handout! 👎
Not on our watch.
🚨RIGHT NOW: Take 2 minutes to email your lawmakers demanding they reject billionaire team owner John Sherman’s play for our taxpayer dollars:

🚨TOMORROW AT 10AM: We’re PACKING City Hall!

Come hear from workers who’ve gone on strike, learn your rights, and leave with a concrete plan of action to flex your economic power. No experience required!
Right now, the regime that holds down our wages, raids our workplaces, and disrespects the will of voters is trying to lock down their authoritarian takeover before we organize to beat them.
Nothing will change until WE take matters into our own hands!

KC workers, tenants, business owners, and residents used our strength in numbers 💪 to beat their last plan.
It’s time to come together again to SHUT DOWN ❌ the Royal Tax Scam once and for all.
#MOworkers
It’s not too late.
Join us at 10am THIS TUESDAY 4/14 at City Hall (414 E 12th St, 26th floor) to make your voice heard!
Now Mayor Lucas, Mayor Pro Tem Ryana Parks-Shaw, Councilman Wes Rogers, Councilman Crispin Rea, and six members of City Council want to IGNORE our decision and disrespect the will of the people all over again — just to put our public money in the hands of private corporations and developers.
Sound familiar?
That’s because the people of KCMO *already* voted down the Royals’ 2024 scheme to waste our taxpayer money after billionaire owner John Sherman failed to deliver on real community benefits like good union jobs and affordable housing.
🗞️ NEW in @kcur.org: KCMO city officials are trying to rush a $600 million giveaway for a new Royals stadium.
