President Trump didn’t just pardon insurrectionists who attacked police officers at our Capitol Building on January 6th—he hired one who urged others to “kill” officers to be a senior advisor at the Department of Justice.
Absolutely disgraceful.

Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill made the largest cut to Medicaid in American history while showering billionaires and giant corporations with trillions in more tax breaks.
Now, vulnerable students in communities across the country will pay the price.

The President’s tariff taxes are paid by AMERICAN consumers and small businesses—which is why the costs of everything from cars to beef to coffee are becoming more expensive.
At a time when hardworking families are struggling with the cost of living, this is only exacerbating the crisis.
The president’s tariff taxes are already undermining small businesses and making life more expensive for American families.
With another round of tariffs enacted today, Americans will see prices continue to rise and job growth slow even further.

Yesterday, I was proud to join Guadalupe Centers & community leaders for the ribbon cutting of Villa View Apartments in KC’s Historic Northeast.
42 of the 50 units are affordable housing - with wraparound services for families, students, & educators.
We’ll keep fighting to lower housing costs.
The Trump administration’s decision to terminate union contracts for thousands of employees is another example of their anti-worker agenda.
Not only does this hurt hardworking employees at the VA, but it undermines the vital services they provide to our nation’s veterans

Today marks National Purple Heart Day.
On this day, let us come together to honor and show appreciation to Purple Heart recipients who selflessly served our nation & stood in harm’s way to protect the freedoms we cherish.
Thank you for your extraordinary bravery and sacrifice.
Ghislaine Maxwell is a convicted predator who participated in one of the most horrific sex trafficking operations in modern history.
Under no circumstances should she receive clemency—which is why I’m supporting @congressmanraja.bsky.social ’s resolution.

From Polio to Measles to COVID, vaccines have been a blessing that have saved countless lives in the United States & around the world.
This decision from Secretary Kennedy is anti-science and a danger to our communities. It must be reversed immediately.

It was an honor to speak at @weareunidosus.bsky.social’s Beacons of Change Conference in Kansas City.
As we continue the fight to protect civil liberties and push for economic progress, we must stand united in the pursuit of better opportunities for Latinos and all Americans.
On this day 60 years ago, the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was signed into law.
But our fight to defend voting rights is not over.
Together, we must keep pushing to pass legislation like the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to ensure EVERY American can make their voice heard in our democracy.
“He has to live under that fear of somebody knocking on the door and dragging him out of the house, just like they did in Derry when he was young”
“I am just worried about him. Until recently, I hadn’t heard him cry about it.”

Republicans Big Ugly Bill will not only take food off the table of vulnerable families, but it will also harm local small businesses in communities across the country.
All to fund more tax breaks for the wealthy and giant corporations.

After securing $4.6M in federal funding to support this effort, I was happy to join lawmakers from Grandview to break ground on the largest infrastructure project in city history, improving traffic safety & boosting economic development for families & small businesses

Vaccines save lives.
This National Immunization Month, I’m committed to keeping our communities healthy by fighting against the Trump administration’s cuts to vaccine research and protecting coverage for critical vaccines.
Another promise to the American people that will go unfulfilled.
Spending taxpayer dollars to incinerate 500 TONS of food assistance and nearly $10 million in contraceptives that were designated for vulnerable families is the definition of waste and inefficiency.
It’s unacceptable—and why I joined @beyer.house.gov to call for an immediate investigation.
It was an honor to break ground with the City of Grandview on the $24M revitalization of Blue Ridge Blvd – the largest infrastructure investment in city history!
I fought to secure $4.6M in federal funding for the project because Grandview families deserve safer streets & a thriving local economy.
If the president doesn’t like the recent economic numbers, he should take a look at the reckless policies being implemented under his watch—not fire the nonpartisan civil servants who are simply reporting facts.
This is another dangerous step that will destabilize the economy.
Last month, following another funding freeze by the Trump administration, we were able to restore nearly $84 million in funding for public schools across Missouri.
I’ll keep fighting to invest in education and lower costs for students and teachers alike.
