We're calling for an end to the filibuster and a Senate vote on the Equality Act.
From all of us at Team Cori, Happy Pride John!
Today we honor the LGBTQIA+ activists, organizers, and leaders who made this month possible and celebrate all of the LGBTQIA+ members of our St. Louis community who enrich our district every single day.
But we can't celebrate without honoring past generations' bravery, activism, and struggle for liberation including the uprisings rooted in the Stonewall Riots. And in doing so, we must do everything we can to protect and uplift LGBTQIA+ youths and adults today.
That's why Cori is working in Congress to promote legislation to protect LGBTQIA+ rights. Last year, Cori was an original cosponsor of the Equality Act, a bill that would prohibit discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity.
Like so many other pieces of legislation, the Equality Act passed the House but has been waiting for a vote in the Senate for months, paralyzed by the Senate filibuster. Enough is enough. We're calling for an end to the filibuster and a Senate vote on the Equality Act.
Will you add your name right now to our petition demanding an end to the filibuster and passage of the Equality Act? We won't accept anything less than fully guaranteed and protected LGBTQIA+ rights.

Everything we do is rooted in love, a love that means that everyone's identity is respected, welcomed, and celebrated.
We are here to say loudly and proudly to our LGBTQIA+ family that you are loved. You are beautiful. And you are not alone. At a time of so much hatred, know that there are so many of us who have your back and will fight for your rights.
Please add your name to our petition right now to call on the Senate to abolish the filibuster and pass the Equality Act.
And don't forget, your Congresswoman loves you ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Together,
Team Cori
