Team Cori here.  GOP strategists and their far-right megadonors are trying to buy this deep-blue seat. Why? They don’t like what Cori stands for… you know, stuff like Medicare for All, the Green New Deal, protecting abortion care, and facilitating a permanent Ceasefire in Gaza…  No, they don’t like…

"Please welcome Congresswoman Cori Bush"

John,  In 2020, we defeated a 52-year political dynasty.  In 2022, St. Louis sent a clear message that we won’t return to the status quo. Now, Cori is once again running to represent Missouri’s 1st Congressional District. In an atmosphere where politics often feels distant and disconnected from re…
