Any effort to install a mid-decade gerrymander that silences the voices of communities across Western Missouri will fail.
Rather than wasting taxpayer dollars attempting to rig the system, the GOP should focus on bipartisan solutions to lower costs for families.

My heart breaks over the mass shooting that took place in New York.
As we pray for the victims and those devastated by this act of senseless gun violence, let us also thank the first responders who prevented further destruction.
And let us recommit to enacting gun safety laws that will save lives.
“The extra investments pledged under the trade deal would come from private companies, which Brussels conceded it has no power to control.”
Meanwhile, American consumers and small businesses will now see import taxes rise from 2.5% to 15% due to tariffs.

Had the opportunity to tour one of Urban Neighborhood Initiative's first completed homes in a 100-home pilot program I proudly championed with $4M in federal funding.
This is what investing in underserved communities looks like-turning empty lots into opportunity, equity, & generational stability.
A 15 to 20% tariff tax on American consumers and small businesses will only ensure higher costs for families and slower economic growth for our communities at a time when Missourians are already struggling to stay afloat.
Families need relief, not more taxes!

Earlier this month, I joined over 150 lawmakers to call on the Administration to release the education funding they were illegally withholding from students, schools, and teachers across the country.
While this doesn’t undo all the damage already done, it’s a step in the right direction.
“The megabill recently passed by Congressional Republicans is expected to strip at least 130,000 Missourians of coverage over the next decade”
Rather than lowering costs for families, Republicans are ripping healthcare away from vulnerable Missourians.

Today, I’m proud to celebrate 250 years of this public treasure. Here’s to 250 years! And thank you to every postal worker who makes it all happen.
#HandsOffUSPS
I’ll say it plainly:
-The Postal Service should NEVER be privatized
-No zip code should be left behind
-No corporation should profit off our access to information or needed medications
Today, USPS still delivers vital medications, paychecks, and Social Security benefits to millions. And in 2020, it helped preserve our democracy, delivering over 135 million ballots during a pandemic.
Before the Constitution was ratified, we had the post office. It’s how we sent abolitionist newspapers, delivered voting ballots, and connected the furthest parts of America. It’s never been just about letters, it’s always been about access.
The U.S. Postal Service is 250 years old today. That’s 2.5 centuries of public service – connecting people, communities, and democracy. And it’s still one of the most beloved institutions in the country.
While the court’s decision is encouraging, we won’t stop fighting until everyone, everywhere, is able to access the care they need with dignity.
This is a win for Planned Parenthood and the patients who rely on it. The Trump-era push to defund essential care is always about politics and never about vital health care.

Trump wants to criminalize and institutionalize the unhoused while slashing funding for housing, mental health care, and veterans’ services. You don’t get to gut the social safety net AND cage the fallout.
This executive order is just cruelty masquerading as policy.
Idk who needs to hear this, but the President should not be reshaping the media landscape to serve his political ends. The FCC greenlighting a merger that hands even more media power to a Trump-aligned executive isn’t policy, it’s propaganda by design. Democracy suffers when power dictates the press
That’s why I joined Rep. Jayapal and 90+ Democrats in June to call on the U.S. administration to do more.
The people in Gaza are starving to death. The humanitarian crisis is not easing – it’s accelerating. Every delay in aid is a death sentence. The world cannot look away: Israel has an obligation to provide desperately needed humanitarian aid to innocent Palestinians.

According to the nonpartisan CBO, GOP's Big Ugly Bill makes the largest cuts to Medicaid & SNAP in history to fund more tax breaks for the wealthiest 1%, while still adding $3.4T to the national debt. The largest redistribution of wealth from working class families to the wealthy in history.
