Republicans want to trick voters into making their vote count less by hiding their plan beneath what the bill sponsor calls “Ballot Candy” Under the GOP plan, if 77% of Missourians approve a ballot item, it could still lose b/c votes from low-population areas would count more.

SJR74 would allow < 25% of voters to block proposed Constitutional amendments and dilute voter power based on a person’s zip code. It’s also full of deceptive language. It’s anti-democratic and insulting to Missourians. If it makes it to the ballot, we will defeat it. #moleg

This “concurrent majority” Rs are pushing for constitutional amendments is simple. They want Republican politicians to be able to gerrymander the vote of the people just like they gerrymander the legislature. They just can’t stand democracy or the will of voters.#moleg
As someone who served I stand up for the right of self determination, of one person one vote. You know you are wrong so you want to silence the voice of the people. I stand for life, liberty, & and the pursuit of happiness for all not just a chosen few.

What a unique perspective. Let's defend life by making healthcare less accessible and affordable. Not sure how that works in the real world.

We run Democrats everywhere, not because they will win everywhere, but because we can’t win when we don’t compete. We fund candidates we know won’t win in a single cycle because if we ask someone to step up, it’s only moral to have their back. Join us! bluemissouri.org

As we celebrate School Bus Drivers' Day in LPS, we wanted to share the story of Brad and Sherry Walker. They both serve in our transportation department, and we are lucky to have them on our team! #ShareTheGoodLPS

Volkswagen in TN, Toyota in MO, Amazon, Starbucks, fast food, public, private — after decades of union-busting and “Right-to-Work” scams, workers are taking their power back. Congress: Do your job. BACK THEM UP. Pass the PRO Act. Pass the Public Service Freedom to Negotiate Act.
I had a great time supporting Joe Jefferies last night in his kickoff to win House District 48. Joe is a great person, smart, compassionate, and one of the bright lights of the future of Missouri.upballot.com/joe-jefferies
Volkswagen workers have made history. And they’re just getting started. #StandUpUAW
More union jobs make things better for all working men and women.
More union jobs make things better for all working men and women.
Congrats to the Volkswagen workers, our @UAW family, & @ShawnFainUAW for this monumental victory in Chattanooga! This is a historic milestone that raises the bar for workers across the South & symbolizes a shift to a new era where workers have the power to shape our futures.
Congratulations to the @UAW on this historic win, not just for VW workers, but for all working America.
Doesn't sound like "choice" to me ⬇️

I grew up in the boonies in the ‘70s. We didn’t have a 24/7 vet hospital nearby. If an animal was injured and dying, family would have to put it down. There was nothing wrong with Kristi Noem’s dog except it belonged to Kristi Noem.

If you think the Framers gave the president king-like authority and immunity to ignore an election and attempt to stay in power, you know absolutely nothing about the history of this country. It’s not a close question, there’s not a debate to be had. You’re wrong.
