Mo. Senate votes to override veto on workers' comp
The Republican-controlled Legislature passed a measure that would prohibit employees from suing co-workers for injuries they sustain on the job and would bar workers from taking to court claims related to the ailments they incur as a result of work, such as the lung disease mesothelioma or carpal tunnel syndrome.
Nixon, a Democrat, vetoed the measure earlier this month. Senators voted to override the veto 24-9 in a largely party-line vote. A spokesman for Nixon declined to comment on the Senate's vote Thursday.
Senate Majority Leader Tom Dempsey, the measure's sponsor, said including occupational diseases in the workers' compensation system would allow people suffering from those ailments to get a faster resolution and payment for their medical bills than if the claims were handled by a civil court.
"We've got to address that. And failing the governor sitting down with us and telling us what he will accept, we've got to move forward with the tools we have as a Legislature," said Dempsey, R-St. Charles.
