Together, we honored the Ferguson Youth Initiative’s incredible founders and alumni and left feeling ready to keep inspiring the young people of Ferguson and beyond.

Congratulations on 15 years!

I had a great time with @FYIFergYouths last month celebrating 15 years of empowering youth and transforming communities.

I’m running to deliver for everyday people here, and I’m ready to fight for tornado relief, investing in public housing and public transit, and creating a Medicare for All healthcare system.

We have so much work to do, and I’m ready to go back to Congress to do it, just like I have before.

St. Louis came together to help those who were most affected, but the full recovery that needs to happen is far from complete. We need leadership that will fight for the federal funding that is necessary to rebuild after the disaster.

When a tornado came to St. Louis in May, I organized with my community to distribute essential supplies. Homes and businesses were devastated, five lives were lost, and many more were injured.

This is a movement that doesn’t move without you. Over the next five months, we’ll win the representation that St. Louis deserves in Congress, and we’ll do it together.

But this is just one step towards winning and delivering a healthier, safer, and more affordable St. Louis.

Between now and Election Day on August 4th, we’ll build the momentum that we need to win through people power. That means knocking doors, phone banking, and pitching in however else you can.

After we went to Jefferson City to put my name on the ballot, we rallied together with allies from across the state who are fighting for everyday people, protecting our reproductive freedom, and standing up to Donald Trump’s fascist agenda.

Last month, I officially filed to run for Congress β€” and I brought the movement with me.

I was honored to join the CLUW Metro St. Louis Chapter yesterday at the Women of Many Hats Brunch to celebrate women of the labor movement.

It was beautiful to hear from those doing the important work here in the St. Louis area to fight for what workers, our families, and our children deserve.

Happy #InternationalWomensDay, St. Louis!

As we spend today celebrating the achievements of women, we recommit ourselves to fighting for a world where all women are able to thrive.

It’s on us to carry on the work of past generations to build a future free from all forms of gender discrimination.

I’m running for Congress to keep fighting for St. Louis. I’ve never been afraid to take the lead on the issues that matter: Medicare for All, reproductive rights, and so much more.

St. Louis deserves everything, and they deserve better than the representative they have right now.

We’re told there’s never enough for housing, recovery, or care.

Yet there’s always money for bombs.

This is what happens when profit is prioritized over people.

I’m running to ensure that our tax dollars go towards the care and education that people need at home, not war or genocide overseas.

as this kind of hateful, anti-Muslim rhetoric only serves to divide us.

Here in St. Louis, we know that our differences are what make our community great, not something to fear. I will always stand with members of our Muslim communities against Islamophobia and hatred.

I am thankful that the Islamophobic sign that was displayed outside Life Church in Ballwin has been removed, and as a Christian, I am disgusted and disappointed by the hatred and bigotry that motivated it.

This sign never should have been up in the first place,

I will always stand with nurses.

At the same hospital where I worked as a registered nurse, we came together to demand fair wages and safer working conditions for healthcare workers. I’m proud to stand with NNU as we call out ICE for what it is: one of the country’s top public health threats.

This is exactly what we have come to expect from one of the most corrupt Presidential administrations in US history. Trump and his buddies keep getting richer while the American people suffer.

Presence without courage isn’t power.Β 

No more settling for access without real action.Β 

No more silence for the sake of comfort.Β 

We’re done acting like being in the room is the reward.Β 

We’re here to change it.

I’ll be on the Breakfast Club talking about why I’m running for Congress to continue fighting for St. Louis.

Too often, even allies fall in line when crumbs are offered.

I won’t.Β 

I’m here for the people who are hungry today. The seniors rationing insulin. The kids without clean water.Β 

Justice isn’t crumbs from the table. It’s choosing communities over comfort, every time.

From local fights to global justice, this movement never looked away.

Climate justice. Public utilities. Housing as a human right.Β 

When our neighbors called, we showed up.

That’s why I’m so proud of the work we’ve done. Humanity is always worth it.

Ramadan Mubarak to all our Muslim neighbors, in St. Louis and beyond.

May this sacred time bring strength, nourishment for the soul, and space for a renewed sense of hope for you and yours. πŸ’œ

ICE is ending their operation in Minnesota. This is only the first step. We need to abolish ICE, investigate the murders committed by federal agents, and hold President Trump, Steven Miller, and Kristi Noem accountable. The families of Renee Good and Alex Pretti deserve justice.

We need to see every single thing from the Epstein files. The wrongdoing must be made public, and Congress must keep fighting to ensure there are consequences.

The survivors deserve nothing less than true accountability and justice.

Happy birthday, Rosa Parks. Her bravery, resilience, and strength inspire us to keep fighting injustice, now more than ever.

Today, we remember her words: β€œNever be fearful about what you are doing when it is right.”
