John,
During the Republican National Convention last night, Mark and Patricia McCloskey attacked Cori by calling her a “radical Marxist.”
Mark and Patricia McCloskey pointed their guns at non-violent activists who were participating in a protest Cori was a co-organizer of in St. Louis in June. This attack on Cori from the RNC and the McCloskeys isn’t only an attack on Cori — they are going after our entire movement and our fight for racial justice.
This is an attack on Democrats, an attack on St. Louisans, and every voter who cast their vote for Cori — a nurse, activist, and mother.

Our movement is rooted in justice for people in Missouri’s 1st District. As a nurse and as a pastor, Cori has been on the frontlines of serving our community.
Republicans have been calling bold activist leaders in Congress, like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Ilhan Omar, ‘socialists’ and ‘Marxists’ for the last two years because they are terrified of their power.
Now it looks like Republicans are also scared of Cori and the bold change she will bring to the halls of Congress. They can call Cori whatever they like. People have been calling her everything you can imagine since she started protesting in Ferguson. It didn’t stop our movement then, and it won’t stop us now.
Thank you for your support,
Team Cori Bush
