Republican #moleg men: "Democrats don't understand guns so shouldn't be legislating them!!" Also #moleg Republican men: "What does trans mean? What's an ectopic pregnancy? Let's legislate it anyway!"

Seriously? This is beyond infuriating. People are dying in our community from a disease you have continually downplayed the severity of, continually fought against commonsense measures like masks, and you’re going to blame hospital management for not having enough ventilators?

When asked about rising number of #DeltaVariant cases in southwest MO, @GovParsonMO says there should be no shortage of ventilators. "The state has a stockpile of ventilators. When somebody says we're out of ventilators, that's more of management problem than anything." #moleg

The Republicans are trying every trick up their sleeve to stop Missourians from voting. Another ridiculous attempt to stifle your voices.

New lawsuit further complicates efforts to restore abortion rights in Missouri

The lawsuit alleges Republican Auditor Scott Fitzpatrick filed an inacurrate estimate of how much it will cost if abortion rights are restored in Missouri.

Cosplaying as the Commander of the Handmaid’s Tale shouldn’t be some campaign gimmick. Your ability to reproduce doesn’t define you. The Senator who lives in Virginia should worry less about what your genitals look like and more about being a co-conspirator for an insurrection

On Jan 6, as rioters stormed our capitol, I was being sworn in for my third term in the General Assembly, and my second as Democratic Floor Leader. The day was full of pomp and circumstance. Lots of speeches and tradition.

MO Republicans have made it clear they plan to continue their assault on the initiative petition b/c they know they’ve gone too far stripping away the rights of Missourians. But like we saw last night in Ohio, even in “red” states, voters won’t be fooled.

Missouri Republicans aren’t giving up on making state constitution harder to amend

Critics of the idea believe that Missourians won’t buy a plan that would make it more difficult to pass policies that the General Assembly doesn’t like.

Here's the final version of the "initiative petition reform" that will make it harder for Missourians to put things on the ballot. I'm so tired of the Republicans in MO trying to silence voters and stifle democracy.

It's never been more obvious which political party is fighting for public education, and which will throw our kids under the bus to win elections. This is so gross.

As governor, I’ll work to allow local governments to pass common-sense gun laws that fit their community. I’m a gun owner, but it’s time we take action to prevent gun violence. I’m proud to be a 2024 Moms Demand Action Gun Sense Candidate.

Today, I, alongside many of my Democratic colleagues, filed legislation to give voters the opportunity to let local officials pass common-sense gun laws that reflect the needs of their communities. Missouri voters should have their say if Republican leadership refuses to act.

My parents had to sacrifice so much and work so hard. Because of them I'm the first in my immediate family to graduate high school, and was able to continue to college at MSU. I'm so grateful to have them walk me down in my final term of the Missouri House of Representatives.

Don't let them fool you, extreme Rs in MO are stealing money from public education to give to private institutions. We need real funding and reforms to education that focus on kids and give schools the tools they need- not to focus on who is giving the biggest campaign donation

Hey #moleg if you want corporations to come to Missouri, maybe you shouldn't ban abortion care and stop beating up on trans kids.

I'm sitting in on the #moleg committee hearing with 3 bills attacking trans kids. I see kids in the audience who have been here every single year these bills have come up. These brave children are spending their childhoods fighting politicians for their very existence.
