You're an integral part of this team, so we want you to know Cori »

 

Since Cori first joined Congress, our movement for people-powered, progressive change has grown tremendously. Thanks to the power of grassroots donations of $5 and $10, we took on the establishment and sent a single mother, nurse, activist, and organizer to Congress.

Now we're counting on this movement to keep her there, so we have a favor to ask:

Will you chip in $5 or anything you can right now to help power Cori's re-election campaign? We're going up against four Democrats in our August primary, and establishment groups are readying to spend millions to attack us.

as an integral member of this team, here are 10 things we want you to know about Cori:

1. Cori understands the issues everyday folks are going through personally. Cori was evicted and lived out of her car with her babies. These experiences are why she has been focused on policies that make life better for everyone, especially regular, everyday Americans without millions of dollars in their bank account.

2. Cori is striving to create a new kind of politics rooted in love and compassion because Cori cares that everyone is housed, fed, safe, and has health care and an education.

3. Only days after joining Congress, white supremacists incited a deadly insurrection on our Capitol. Cori introduced her first-ever piece of legislation calling for the expulsion of Republican insurrectionists from office.

4. In her first term in Congress, Cori has introduced 12 pieces of legislation including the Green New Deal for Cities, the Keeping Renters Safe Act, and the People's Response Act.

5. When the eviction moratorium was set to expire last summer, Cori jumped into action to organize a five-day action outside of the Capitol to demand the Biden Administration extend the eviction moratorium.

6. Cori proudly delivered over $9 million to organizations saving lives across the St. Louis community. This funding is yet another victory for St. Louis and brings us closer to a more just and equitable St. Louis for all.

7. Cori's not afraid to share her story for the greater good. Cori was one of the first sitting members of Congress to share her abortion story in an effort to resist the GOP's attempts to restrict abortion access in America.

8. Cori doesn't accept a cent of corporate PAC money, but that's not how all of Congress operates. Most members fund their re-elections through special interest donations — from the pharmaceutical industry, military contractors, even the gun lobby — and spend hours on the phone calling up their wealthy friends.

9. Cori's running for re-election because we still have more work to do. Together we can keep making real progress on racial justice, addressing the climate crisis, and ensuring everyone is guaranteed quality health care.

10. Super PACs and establishment groups are prepared to spend record amounts of money to attack Cori during the midterm elections. We'll need the support of this grassroots team to defend Cori and fight back.

Please, if you're with Cori in our movement for economic, environmental, and racial justice, will you chip in $5 right now to help keep Cori in Congress legislating and organizing for bold, progressive change?

In solidarity,

Team Cori
