Public broadcasters like PBS and NPR play a pivotal role in communities across #MO05.
While Republicans recently voted to slash funding for these local stations, I’ll keep fighting to ensure they can continue serving the Missourians who depend on them!

The president hasn’t lowered costs for families.
He hasn’t ended the war in Ukraine.
He hasn’t released the Epstein Files.
But he has made the largest cuts to Medicaid and SNAP in history to fund more tax breaks for billionaires, while adding trillions to the debt.

Because of President Trump’s tariff taxes and Republican cuts to federal healthcare programs, hardworking families will see hikes to their healthcare costs moving forward.
So much for lowering costs for the American people.

Just as I fought to protect the funding for NPR and PBS, I will continue fighting to return federal investments to these public broadcasters—because they are just too important to our communities.

PBS and NPR are instrumental in Western Missouri, playing a key role in relaying important information during crises while also providing beloved public programming like Sesame Street and local sportscasts.
Last night, at the order of President Trump, Republicans defunded them.
Public libraries play an invaluable role in our communities, educating our children and providing essential services to our neighbors.
That’s why I’ll continue fighting to invest in these community cornerstones—and fight against short-sighted cuts.

The Call has been a pillar of the Black community in Kansas City for over a century, ensuring the voices and stories of African Americans are shared broadly.
Thankful to the @kclibrary.bsky.social for preserving this history for generations to come.

Today, @nlihc.org released its latest report about America’s national housing affordability crisis.
The stark analysis shows that the cost of housing is simply out of reach for far too many families—and lawmakers must take action to lower costs.

As President Trump’s family reaps billions in corrupt crypto schemes, he is attempting to pressure lawmakers into passing crypto legislation that would unleash financial scammers and threaten the financial stability of families across the country.
That’s why I’m voting NO!
“He spoke of unity at a time when outside forces seek to divide. And he spoke of love as our guiding light through the darkest of times.”
Today, in honor of John's memory, let's make a little Good Trouble as we seek to create a better world for all.

A founder of The Black Caucus, Bill Clay was a dear friend, powerful mentor, and a champion for Black Americans in St. Louis and all across this great nation.
It is with profound sadness that I send my condolences to the Clay family and the St. Louis community as they grieve this tremendous loss.
The Trump administration’s mass deportation agenda isn’t just a threat to immigrant communities, it's undermining the civil rights of American citizens, including those who have served in uniform.
This lawlessness is a threat to civil rights for ALL.

Republicans said they would focus on lowering costs for hardworking families.
Instead, after making the largest cut to Medicaid and SNAP in history to fund more tax breaks for the wealthiest 1%, they’re now killing off Big Bird and Mr. Rogers.

The American people deserve transparency about these heinous crimes.
Despite Republican efforts to block this information from coming to light, Democrats will not relent in the fight to release the Epstein files.

“The latest reading of the Consumer Price Index recorded the first signs of what economists had predicted all along, with U.S. businesses and consumers shouldering a growing share of the burden from the taxes Mr. Trump has imposed on imports.”

The cruelty of incinerating 500 tons of food that could feed millions of children around the world is truly unconscionable.

In 2021, Democrats passed enhanced tax credits to lower healthcare costs for millions of Americans.
Republicans just got rid of those tax credits in their Big Ugly Bill—which will result in higher insurance costs on more than 22 million people.

As Republicans do the bidding of Big Oil and slash investments in clean energy projects that help lower costs, energy prices are expected to increase on hardworking families across the country—and Missouri is at the very top of the list.
We’re grateful for his courage, leadership and the example he continues to set in the community.
Join me in thanking Corporal Templeton for his remarkable service.
He was deployed to the Mediterranean, where he supported critical operations aboard the USS El Paso—including Operation Eldorado Canyon off the coast of Libya.
For his role and leadership, he earned both the Marine Corps Expeditionary Medal and the Navy Meritorious Unit Commendation.
