Missouri voters approved Proposition A to raise the minimum wage to $15 by 2026 and mandate paid sick leave.

Missouri voters have approved Proposition A, which raises the state minimum wage to $15 per hour by 2026 and mandates paid sick leave for private employees. The minimum wage will increase from $12.30 to $13.75 in January 2025 and reach $15 in January 2026, with annual adjustments for inflation thereafter. Paid sick leave will start in May 2025, allowing one hour for every 30 hours worked. Certain exemptions apply, and the measure aims to benefit low-wage workers.
