Can’t fully express what it meant to have Vice President @kamalaharris.com look me in the eye and tell me how proud of me she is. Grateful to be able to introduce my wife, Natalia to her. Surrounded by women who lift the ceiling everywhere they walk. 💙

Congratulations, @rayreedmo.bsky.social on this important endorsement. One of the reasons I’m supporting Rep. Reed’s re-election is that I know he will be a fighter for reproductive rights and women’s health.

As a former NEA president, I’m proud to endorse @rayreedmo.bsky.social , the only candidate for house district 83 who is making union rights a priority. Ray comes from a union family, and he knows that unions made the middle class.

Someone once again needs to explain to me why @rayreedmo.bsky.social is being forced to defend his seat in the Missouri House after one term? Really? This is how Democrats in St. Louis need to be spending our fucking time when we have to vote to keep abortion legal AGAIN?

Two years ago, we turned the page to a new generation of leadership in Missouri. In just one term, we’ve taken on Trump’s unconstitutional gerrymander, fought to protect reproductive freedom, invested in our public schools, and stood up for our immigrant neighbors.

@rayreedmo.bsky.social, Jeremy Dean, and Elizabeth Fuchs hosted a sit-in inside the Missouri legislative chamber all weekend to protest Trump and Republicans’ craven gerrymandering scheme. Democrats won’t back down when democracy is under threat.

Earlier this week after session, I spent some time with my friend and California’s speaker of the House, Robert Rivas. Speaker Rivas couldn’t have been more gracious and the California state Capitol couldn’t be more beautiful— innovation happens in California and I can’t wait for what’s to come.
