Consumers Council of Missouri

Consumers have new resource in Consumers Council of Missouri

Consumers Council of Missouri became a public advocate in 2006, saying consumer interests were being ignored in lieu of a well-financed lobby for big business.

Organized to educate and empower consumers statewide and to advocate for their interests, its leaders hope the Consumers Council will begin to restore the historic balance between consumer and business interests. Although the group will not represent individual consumers, it is a membership organization and will work for the common interests of all Missouri consumers. The “Consumers Council of Missouri” is a non-governmental, non-profit organization.

In addition, the Consumers Council of Missouri will rely on consumer experts to help keep the public informed and to analyze important issues in the areas of energy, insurance and finance. The organization plans to issue consumer alerts, write articles and produce an electronic newsletter. The organization has an office in St. Louis and will have regional committees representing other areas of the state. The Consumers Council will be recruiting individual members on an ongoing basis.

Anyone can become a member of Consumers Council of Missouri. General membership dues are just $10 annually – more if you wish. To become a member, click here.
