We passed Proposition A way back in November. We shouldn't have to fight for this after voters have made it clear. Workers deserve dignity and respect. Paid sick leave is a start. Arguing against that is despicable and smells like oppression.

If President Trump can wrongly deport a Maryland father to a prison in El Salvador and then defy a 9-0 Supreme Court order to facilitate bringing him home, who’s next? This threatens the rights and freedoms of everyone in the United States.

Here we go again.... Missouri voters were clear when #Amendment3 passed. HBs 1072 and 1417 "to abolish abortion" are in direct opposition to Amendment 3 and attack our right to abortion and reproductive freedom. I encourage you all to testify ASAP. witness.house.mo.gov/Default.aspx...

It's a game of #whack-a-mole at this point. 🙄 #HJR73 would repeal #Amendment3 and undermine the will of #Missouri voters. We were clear that we won't stand for bans on #abortion. house.mo.gov/Bill.aspx?bi... Submit #testimony until midnight on 4/9. witness.house.mo.gov/Default.aspx...

Missouri voters and taxpayers are being undermined and disrespected as we speak! ⏳️ Make your voice heard before midnight! ⏳️ Efforts to overturn Prop A have brought forth HB 567, an ugly bill that strikes out basic rights to more fair wages and sick leave. These are things that VOTERS demanded. ...

Ahmaud Arbery's life was stolen by violence and hatred fueled by racism and fear. May the anniversary of his passing serve as a stark reminder that we must confront injustice head-on and fight for a world where Black lives are truly valued, protected, and free to exist without fear.

Voters know what they passed. These bills aiming to give voters the ability to "decide again" are a waste of time and taxpayers' resources. Several repeatedly implied the language wasn't vetted or challenged - it was. Missouri voters deserve to be truly represented, and the GOP is missing the mark.

Because of lawmakers like David Gregory, who are writing bills for bounties on other humans, a 25-year-old Missouri man kidnapped and assaulted a woman in southern Missouri while demanding she show her papers.

I am such a believer in this. Down-ballot is the way. It’s also how we build a sustainable future of good leaders and infrastructure to elect and support them, as well as the movements they represent. We don’t just need strong candidates. We need strong organizers, managers, CoS, grassroots, etc.
