If you trust elections enough to celebrate your own victories, you should trust them enough to respect everyone else’s. Continuing to spread false election claims after winning the presidency (twice) and governing with congressional majorities isn’t just hypocritical, it’s dangerous.

On the anniversary of his passing, may we honor my dear friend not only with our words, but with our courage to recommit to the unfinished work of justice that he so faithfully carried forward.
Some people leave behind memories. John Lewis left behind a mandate. Stand up against injustice, speak truth, and get in Good Trouble.
“Death by a thousand cuts” isn’t just a warning about our elections, it’s how democracies erode. Any effort to weaken the institutions that administer our elections should concern every American. We deserve leadership that strengthens and protects every American’s right to vote.
This landmark housing law became reality because we chose results over rhetoric. Americans deserve more of this.
Watch our full interview here: www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-pre...
Housing isn’t a Republican or a Democratic issue, it’s an American issue. Proud to join Rep. Mike Flood on @meetthepress.com as part of their Common Ground Series to discuss how we proved that governing is still possible.
My statement on Rep. Massie's Amendment to GOP Foreign Aid Budget Bill & Policy in the Middle East:
It’s time to govern.

The 2020 election is over. The Constitution settled it. The Electoral College certified it. The courts upheld it.
The American people deserve a President focused on lowering costs (as promised) & solving problems, not reviving false claims about an election that was decided years ago.
I was also glad to share how the recently enacted bipartisan housing law, including rural housing provisions I authored with Rep. Zach Nunn, will help expand housing opportunities in rural communities while addressing housing needs across Missouri.
It was a pleasure welcoming this year’s MO Ag Leadership of Tomorrow cohort to Capitol Hill. Their passion for agriculture and rural Missouri gives me confidence in the future of our state’s agricultural industry.
I also enjoyed sitting down with members of the MO Corn Board Directors to discuss the importance of year-round E15 and the role biofuels play in strengthening our energy independence, creating markets for Missouri farmers, and supporting rural economies.
Great meeting with FCS Financial, Missouri’s largest agricultural lender, to discuss the importance of passing a strong, bipartisan Farm Bill ensuring farmers have reliable access to credit they need to keep feeding, fueling, and growing our economy.
🧵Yesterday was a busy day on Capitol Hill meeting with Missouri’s agricultural leaders.
From strengthening the farm economy to expanding biofuels and investing in rural housing, I’m committed to making sure Missouri’s producers and rural communities have the tools they need to thrive.
History teaches us that constitutional rights are rarely lost all at once - they’re chipped away slowly, one exception, one excuse, one precedent at a time.
That’s why I took to the House floor yesterday to defend the 14th Amendment and the freedoms it guarantees.
Instead, it’s the price of reckless decisions made in the White House.

Trump’s war of choice isn’t just costing lives abroad, it’s costing Missouri families at home.
Since March, hardworking Missouri households have paid $524 more at pump. Families already feel the financial squeeze – that’s money that could have gone toward groceries, rent, childcare, or savings.
In April, Republicans gave ICE $20 million for body cameras.
Then in June, Republicans handed the agency another $38 billion.
ICE doesn’t need another dollar, it needs to be held accountable for terrorizing our communities.
