Moving Missouri Forward

Every day in Jefferson City, I and my fellow Democratic Senators are working together to push back against the radical MAGA agenda. This year we stopped them from erecting roadblocks to citizen initiative petitions. It was their desperate attempt to stop voters from restoring reproductive rights for women. We also stopped attempts to take away local control from the citizens of St. Louis. These attacks against democracy won’t stop, which is why St. Louis needs an experienced, proven, and effective State Senator.

Making a difference also means securing our fair share of state resources. This year I succeeded in adding $70 million to the State Budget for projects and social groups in St. Louis that are making a difference in people’s lives every day. A complete list of these grants can be found below.

As your State Senator I will continue to fight to pass bills restricting unsupervised children in possession of concealed firearms and red flag laws to protect victims of domestic abuse. I will continue to fight for social and criminal justice reform, education, jobs, and health care. With every vote I take in the Senate I always put the interests of the people of St. Louis first. I want to continue to fight for the city I love.

I am asking for your vote in the Democratic Primary on August 6, 2024. If you can help in our campaign or have a question please reach out. If you can make a contribution please click the donate button below. Any amount is greatly appreciated.

Yours In Service,
