Minimum wage hike set to reverse in Missouri
Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens returns minimum wage to $7.70 an hour -- ten bucks an hour was a mistake, he says.
"Despite what you hear from liberals, it will take money out of people's pockets," Greitens said.
Wanda Roberts, a minimum wage worker in St. Louis, said the new $10 wage brought in an extra $400 a month and helped the local economy.
"If we're making $10 an hour, we're going to go right back out and spend that money," Roberts said.
And now that it's being reversed, she says she would "go back to struggling."
"Trying to worry about how I'm going to pay my rent, how I'm going to pay my bills and how I'm going to have money left over to buy household supplies and food," she added.
