Unlike most members of Congress, Cori started her journey in public service as an activist in the streets.
Cori’s not your typical representative, John.
Unlike most members of Congress, Cori started her journey in public service as an activist in the streets of Ferguson.
It’s clear that her background has been key to growing our organizing movement. She knows from her time as an activist for the movement in defense of Black lives that change isn't just going to happen with the power of the pen, but the power of the people.
→ That’s why she organized a mass action in front of the Capitol to demand an extension of the eviction moratorium.
→ That’s why Cori and her sisters in the Squad met with Indigenous groups earlier this month to protest Line 3 in Minnesota.
→ That’s why Cori spoke at a pro-choice rally for reproductive rights in St. Louis.
And that’s why Cori promises to advocate in Congress the same way she did with a bullhorn on the streets of Ferguson demanding the change we need to save lives.
But like all activists know: Progress doesn’t happen with just one person. It’s going to take ALL OF US working together to push for the transformative policies our communities need.
If you’re ready to rise up with Cori in this work, will you chip in $5 or anything you can today to power our organizing and legislating work in Congress? Cori is the FIRST activist from the movement in defense of Black lives to serve in Congress and her leadership is critical to continue pushing for bold change.
