I hate that I have to post this again, but the kids who are testifying against the anti-trans bills tonight are an inspiration. Such bravery and resolve in the face of a government that’s targeting them and their rights. By the way, nobody is testifying in support. #moleg

They are literally talking about building mass internment camps in a second Trump administration.

To round up migrants, Miller said, Trump would dispatch forces to “go around the country arresting illegal immigrants in large-scale raids.” Then, it would build “large-scale staging grounds near the border, most likely in TX,” to serve as internment camps for migrants

Ghoulish. The people voted on this. The money is there. It will save lives. There is literally no reason for this move by Missouri GOP reps other than “Because we can.” #moleg

Fed. law already prohibits tax $ paying for abortion services. What they did is cut off access to vital healthcare for low income women purely for the sake of politics. It’s gross and it will hurt people, but that’s not something that seems to matter for the #moleg supermajority

Missourians will no longer be forced to pay for abortions and abortion services with their tax dollars because we defunded Planned Parenthood. Proud to have championed this legislation in the Senate making it possible for @GovParsonMO to sign it today. #moleg @cody4mo

48 hours - that’s how long Senate Democrats have been filibustering the initiative petition legislation. Members say they will sit down when the “ballot candy” is removed. There’s less than 52 hours left until lawmakers must adjourn sine die according to the constitution. #moleg

People are freezing to death in Texas and Republicans are doing a full court press, flat out lying that it’s due to wind power failing. This despite the fact that the vast majority of the issues are due to gas lines and grid issues. Just ghoulish and unconscionable.

The House just shut down debate on a bill making it harder to gather initiative petition signatures (and easier to invalidate them) after allowing only one member to speak. I serve on the Elections committee and was left standing. Very cool and very democratic. #moleg

The shooting of Ralph Yarl was a senseless act of violence that needs to be investigated thoroughly and prosecuted accordingly. We all know that the outcome probably would have been different for a white teenager knocking on the wrong door. Horrific in every way.

Reading #moleg MEC reports, I see a common trend: @MoDemParty candidates are out busting their butts for every $20 donation, while most MO GOP candidates just collect a few big checks from PACs and call it a day. Makes it pretty clear who each party works for.

God there is just so much at stake in 2024. “Donald Trump and his allies have begun mapping out specific plans for using the federal government to punish critics and opponents should he win a second term.”

It’s been almost a decade since Missouri has had an attorney general who didn’t openly overstep their authority for cynical political reasons. We have got to stop these people from stepping all over the law to use this job just as a stepping stone.

There are a number of counties in MO where you soon may not be able to run for office as a Republican if you refuse to agree with easily debunked conspiracy theories around the 2020 election. This is absolute lunatic stuff. Vote for Democrats; we are not lunatics.
