🧵My best friend (Black woman) & I were pregnant at the same time 18 yrs ago. We both had preeclampsia, hers undiagnosed as her symptoms were written off. I was put on bed rest & hospitalized. She was told to relax. A week after she gave birth, the day my son was born, she died.

Shocking absolutely no one, Sen Katie Britt lied about the woman she met who was sex trafficked. This is what they do. They can’t win on policy, they can’t even win on fear. So they have to lie to you in hopes of playing on your fears. Vote. Them. Out.

The children who weren’t transported to the hospital are not okay. THEY ARE NOT OKAY. They are injured, and these injuries are painstakingly difficult to heal. This trauma doesn’t just fade away. The kids are not okay. @MomsDemand

You care about all kids or you care about no kids. We have politicians who only feign interest in horrific events if the victim is white & they were hurt by an undocumented immigrant, or a black man, or a black high school student. Every tragedy should push us to change.

Side note: As a kid, I was not the best student. I know the feeling when you didn’t do the necessary & expected work/research on a project. The adult in the room asks you a simple question & you’ve got nothing. So you simply stare at your paper hoping to god that they move on.👇🏻

There were over 800 “good guys with guns” at the parade that were unable to prevent this shooting from happening. Two unarmed citizens tackled the suspects. This is just Bill Eigel’s weird way of telling voters that he has no plan. #MoLeg @MomsDemand

To the liberal gun grabbers already trying to use this KC tragedy to push your radical gun control agenda, hear me now: NOT IN MISSOURI. One good guy with a gun could have stopped the evil criminals who opened fire on the crowd immediately. Guns don’t kill people. Thugs and…

I’ve had a loaded gun pressed against my head while a man raped me… at 16 years old. I can tell you, without a doubt, the ONLY thing that would’ve prevented this atrocity was if my attacker didn’t have easy access to a gun. You will not move me on this stance. @MomsDemand

@Turb1neG1rl You’re absolutely correct, it was BP. The 9 children I’m referring to are the ones Brett references as still being alive in that classroom, which Mariano Pargas got a call about and walked away. It’s heartbreaking and infuriating that parents are having to fight these battles.💔

🧵Alright y’all, let’s be real. Women in the MO House have always had to cover their arms. This is not new. The debate was over the classist decision to dictate what material they could cover their arms with. It was ridiculous, a time-suck, and deserving of criticism. Buuutt…

So my question is, what happens when we know that top statewide GOP officials use their taxpayer-funded offices & the court system to collude with an anti-abortion group to silence MO voters? Can we have a little accountability? @PeterforMO @crystal_quade @SarahUnsicker @BigElad

In March 2022, Missouri Senator Eric Schmitt’s PAC spent just under $1.3 million, including $19K for food & drinks, on a campaign fundraising event at Mar-a-Lago. Working class, blue collar Missourians weren’t invited (even if they could afford the $1k-$5.8k ticket price).

@ElieNYC Reports showed that Iowa Republicans put immigration as their top issue this election. If they actually believed this was a problem, the Iowa caucus would look nothing like this.

🧵None of us should be surprised by the bill Missouri state rep Brian Seitz (R) filed that would criminalize women for aborting non-viable pregnancies. Two sessions ago, Seitz admitted that the death penalty was on the table in cases of abortion. #MoLeg
