[ [link removed] ]Ayanna Pressley for Congress

My
sister-in-service Cori Bush fought hard for the people of St. Louis. Her
movement for the people and by the people proves that progressive values
benefit the whole community. And her loss in the primary this week, though
heartbreaking, will not stop that movement.

It has been a deep honor to work alongside Cori in Congress. She is a true
movement builder, truth teller, and champion for the people. She has been
a champion — doing the most for those who have the least — and is someone
I proudly collaborated with on criminal legal reform, housing justice, the
first-ever Congressional Caucus for the Equal Rights Amendment, and so
much more.

The threats to our democracy from right-wing funded super PACs, like
AIPAC, will not stop our work for justice. These dark money groups don't
care about the people of St. Louis, about their stories or the needs of
the community — they only care about their special interests. And before
Citizens United, the Supreme Court case that allowed for unlimited and
undisclosed spending in elections, this type of undue influence on our
democracy was illegal.

I know this defeat will not silence Cori and our movement. It won’t stop
our fight for reproductive rights, for paid leave, for housing justice,
and for working people from Missouri to Massachusetts. We must stand
strong in our values. We will not be bought and we will not be silenced.

progressive, pro-peace, pro-humanity movement and ensure we can continue
to fight for people-centered policies.

And to all of Team Cori, the staff, volunteers, families, advocates,
supporters, and community members who organized rallies, hosted GOTV
events, knocked on doors, and made phone calls, thank you for showing up
for our movement. We decide our future.

Onward,

Ayanna
