Rep. Walsh proposes bill to make all Mo. workers essential

No matter what job you have, you’re essential to Sara Walsh.

The Ashland Republican state representative introduced a bill protecting all Missouri workers from any kind of government-ordered shutdown.

“Every profession, every occupation, is important. Every occupation is essential. And I just don’t believe the government should be picking winners and losers.”

Walsh says the legislation is designed to keep all workers on the job, not just frontline staffers, during the pandemic.
