Travelers Insurance, MO-PERM Insurance: Stop Discriminating Against African American Contractors

The Issue

Travelers Insurance, Missouri Public Entity Risk Management Fund (MO-PERM) and its affiliates have actively allowed its insured Joplin School District to mismanage insurance funds received from the May 2011 tornado disaster by refusing to pay its African American contractors, and agreeing only to pay White contractors for worked completed on the natural disaster relief efforts.


Travelers Insurance and MO-PERM are aware of the racially discriminatory actions taken against the African American contractor while working in Joplin, MO, to include death threats, police reports, restraining orders, FBI involvement, racially verbal abuse, and racial intimidation. 

The demands for justice and equal rights for African American contractors have been ignored by Travelers and MO-PERM offices. Hold the insurance companies accountable for the mismanagement, fraud, and racial discrimination they granted.

We need you to stand with People Who Care for truth and justice! Stop the bullying. Stop the intimidation. Stop the racism. We are all equal in this great country.

Boycott Travelers, boycott MO-PERM, hold the big businesses accountable for the allowance of discrimination and abuse by a public agency.

African Americans voted in record numbers during the 2012 presidential election; not for gifts, welfare, nor for entitlement programs but for our civil liberties to be protected. 

Sign this petition and demand that Travelers Insurance, MO-PERM and its affiliates stop giving funds to public agency insurance abusers.
