Eight months after voters approved it, Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe signed the repeal of a law Thursday that had guaranteed paid sick leave to workers and inflationary adjustments to the minimum wage.

Something tells me they hate themselves but they’d need some kind of self awareness or a soul for that, so maybe not
