John,
I never imagined myself in Congress, but thanks in large part to the power
of this grassroots community, I'm here.
Thanks to you, we defeated a twenty-year incumbent in a "stunning upset
victory" in 2020 and you helped re-elect the first Black woman to
represent Missouri to Congress. Thanks to you, we legislate for the
transformative change St. Louis needs in Congress every single day.
Far-right, white supremacists have been trying to silence our team through
belittling attacks, and as of this evening, we're falling short of our
8,275 contributions end-of-month fundraising goal. I know this community
can do anything we set our minds to, so
John, I need to ask for your support once again
to stand up against their racist rhetoric.
If you're with me in this work, please make a contribution using your
personal link below to grow our progressive movement, mobilize against GOP
attacks, and pass the change our communities need:

This community is at the heart of everything I do. I ran for Congress
because too many of our elected officials were not looking out for us.
When you've lived out of a car with your babies, you know that affordable
housing isn't just a nice idea, it's a necessity.
When you've seen your neighbors lose their lives to police violence, you
know that defunding the police and investing in our communities isn't just
a catchphrase, but an urgent call to save Black lives.
When you've been forced to decide between affording groceries or
utilities, you know that the "handouts" Republicans keep attacking are
life-saving policies for families that our own tax dollars have funded.
These are the struggles that so many of us have lived. These shared
struggles are why I ran for office and why I'm working every day to create
a new kind of politics rooted in love and compassion.
But the challenges we face right now in Congress — from white supremacist
lawmakers and the Jim Crow filibuster to the dark money funding too many
of our elected officials' campaigns — have made it clear that it's going
to take a widespread, grassroots effort to bring these progressive
policies to life.
John, I can't do this alone,
so I'm hoping to see your name on our list of November donors before
midnight. Please, make a contribution right now by using your very own
personal link:

Thank you for all of your support.
Your Congresswoman loves you,
Cori
