They want to cut unemployment in half

They’re setting the working class up to lose. That’s why we need the #PeoplesBailout -- and that’s why I’m running for Congress. John, it's outrageous: COVID-19 has killed more than 190,000 people in this country. It has cost tens of millions of people their jobs. And it has cost far too many…

Cori Bush + Ed Markey

The election is less than two months away. And, with so many people planning to vote early and to vote by mail, we have less time than ever to make sure that progressive candidates like Cori and Ed have the support they need to win. John, we want to tell you about our friend, Ed Markey: In t…

Missouri AFL-CIO just endorsed...

I’m glad to stand with the Missouri AFL-CIO in this fight, and I’m grateful that they’re standing with me. John, I have some big news: Today, on Labor Day, I'm proud to accept the endorsement of the Missouri AFL-CIO. Will you join them in supporting my campaign for Congress? If you've stored …

We need to reward labor

I know what it’s like to live paycheck to paycheck. So I know it’s not enough for us to just celebrate labor one weekend a year. John, This Labor Day weekend, essential workers are continuing to risk their lives by working during a pandemic — and far too many will get unlivable wages in retu…

We need your help before midnight

We're almost there — but midnight is fast approaching and we still need a few more gifts to reach that goal. John, we have just hours left. Our team set the ambitious goal of raising $200,000 before the end of the month. We're almost there — but midnight is fast approaching and we still need …

We’re running behind on our goal to raise $200,000 this month

John, here's the deal: We set a goal to raise $200,000 this month in order to continue building our movement, reach unregistered voters in St. Louis, and fight back against the RNC’s attacks on Cori during their convention. Right now, we’re running behind on reaching our goal and that’s why …

This movement belongs to every single one of us.

John, On Thursday, I stepped foot in the Capitol building for the first time: I am so proud to have the opportunity to serve my community in the halls of Congress. All I can think about is how proud I will be to bring St. Louis with me. But, we still have to win in November — and Donald Tru…

How we’ll register 15,000 people

John, we need to act now. Donald Trump has proven what lengths he’ll go to to keep his power, even if that means slowing down the USPS. That affects every single person in this country and their right to vote this November. My team is acting right now to fight back against these attacks. We …
