Trump’s plan is nothing more than a mass purge of dedicated public servants at agencies that benefit the American public and keep the nation running. This is harmful to all of us, but especially our neighbors and their families put in this position.
I proudly stand with public servants in #MO05 and across the nation.

Last night I hosted a call with #AFGE, #NTEU, local unions, and federal employees to discuss Trump’s dangerous federal employee buyout plan.
Federal workers keep our country running – gutting the workforce to reward political allies is unacceptable.
It's long past time for meaningful action to #EndGunViolence. We owe it to the victims & to future generations.
Today, we honor the 17 children & educators who lost their lives at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. My heart remains with survivors, families, & communities still grappling with the pain.
Holding space today to reflect on the tragic shooting that took place during the Chiefs’ Super Bowl rally, forever impacting our community. My heart is with Lisa’s family and all those affected by the celebration turned tragedy.

Let’s show America love this Valentine’s Day by making sure all our neighbors have a home 🏠 and money 💵 in their pockets. It’s time to invest in fair affordable housing 💘 and ensure Elon keeps his hands off the CFPB. #ShowHousingLOVE #LoveTheCFPB
The Trump admin's federal employee buyouts aren’t about efficiency—they’re about hollowing out agencies that serve the American people, driving out experienced public servants, & weakening government from within.
We need a government that works for the people, not one gutted for political gain.
Elon Musk casually (& seriously) suggesting we “delete” entire federal agencies shows just how out of touch billionaires are. These agencies protect our air, food, safety, and economy. We need a government that works for the people-not the whims of the wealthy.

The Justice For All Act restores the full power of America’s civil rights laws and ensures the next generation of Americans can continue to move the nation toward a more perfect union.

With the Trump admin’s sweeping assaults on racial minorities, women, neighbors living with disabilities, and LGBTQ+ Americans, I am proud to join Reps. Rashida Tlaib & Summer Lee to re-introduce the Justice For All Act.
The answer?
Even higher costs on necessities like housing, food, and medicine.

The Trump Administration promised to lower costs for Americans – but instead, inflation is skyrocketing on their watch.
From higher grocery bills to soaring healthcare costs, working families are paying the price.

Project 2025 in action: Republicans claim to care about everyday Americans but are actively planning to slash health care for millions so they can give trillions in tax breaks to their billionaire and big corporate friends.
Here are the Americans that will lose care:
This week, I met with local representatives of the National Federation of the Blind to discuss ways in which Congress can support Americans with visual disabilities.
Thank you all for stopping by to make your voices heard—and know that you’ve got an ally in Rep. Cleaver!
President Trump and MAGA Republicans said they would lower costs for hardworking families.
Instead, they’re working on another tax cut for the billionaire class, paid for by cuts to Medicaid and SNAP that millions of Missourians rely on.

Thanks to the Trump Administration’s reckless funding freeze, including agricultural funding from the Inflation Reduction Act, Missouri farmers can’t get federal reimbursements for investments they made for new equipment and infrastructure.
The chaos must end!
www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2025/...
As the Trump Administration continues its assault on federal workers, I met with local AFGE members to hear directly about the challenges they’re facing in #MO05.
Together, we will stand up for the rule of law and defend the civil servants who provide essential services to our communities.
“A major soybean research project, which collaborates with the University of Missouri, will shut down April 15 due to President Donald Trump’s dismantling of funding to the U.S. Agency for International Development.”
