Public lands are crucial to preserving the natural beauty of the Show Me State. I’ll always advocate to protect them in Missouri and across the country. That’s why I was glad to join a letter opposing any effort by the Trump Administration to sell off land within Yosemite National Park. Our public lands should NEVER be for sale.

A win for STL! I was proud to support the Water Resources Development Act, which overwhelmingly passed the House last week. It includes a project authorization for Laclede’s Landing. This will help with flood risk management, navigation, recreation, and ecosystem restoration near the area.

The people of Missouri didn’t ask for this redistricting. Trump did. Once again, the Supreme Court ruled to protect the rights of Missourians.

I got the chance to speak to the families of victims wrongfully killed by ICE. Nothing will ever truly bring back what’s been taken from them, but myself and @OversightDems are fighting to hold ICE and the Trump Administration accountable.

Welcome back! The St. Louis Zoo is the best in the nation, a local treasure, and a leader in conservation and research. Looking forward to seeing how visitors get to learn from the zoo’s newest residents 🦁 fox2now.com/news/missouri/af…

Wilber Rafael Garces Perez was shot in the back in Austin by an ICE officer. Now, he’s stuck in a detention center— with the bullet still lodged in his back. I joined over 100 Members of Congress to demand that ICE release him to allow him the medical treatment he deserves. cbsnews.com/news/wilber-rafa…

The tornado that hit St. Louis last year made it clear more than ever that our nation’s disaster relief system needs a complete overhaul. I’m fighting to fix it.

Excited to see more flights from STL to London. It’s progress like this that, as I like to say, wakes the sleeping giant that is St. Louis. Let’s keep working to bring even more resources and opportunities back to our region! ksdk.com/article/news/local/…

Anyone still without power after the train derailment in Ferguson please contact Ameren. And a special thank you to the Ameren crews who are working nonstop to restore power for St. Louisans. ksdk.com/article/news/local/…

Diseases that have been cured are now resurging under this Administration's incompetence and appointment of unqualified individuals. The decisions these “experts” make have a real impact on Americans and here at home. ksdk.com/article/news/health…

As we continue to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month, I wanted to take a moment to express how thankful I am for all that Hispanic Americans have done for the St. Louis region. Let us all honor the generations whose leadership and hard work continue to make our country stronger.

G’mar Chatima Tovah to everyone observing Yom Kippur across the St. Louis region. May this sacred time of reflection and renewal bring peace and meaning to you and your loved ones.

Today is National App Challenge Day! Just wanted to remind all the rockstar students in Missouri’s First District that registration for the 2026 Congressional App Challenge is open NOW! Registration closes in just a few weeks. 📲 bell.house.gov/services/cong…

This is an absolute dishonor to the brave servicemembers who are putting their lives on the line for Trump’s reckless, unauthorized war. My heart goes out to the loved ones of ALL the servicemembers lost. We should be remembering and honoring their brave sacrifices…not hiding their names behind closed doors. washingtonpost.com/national-…

…that’s an additional $624 in gas costs for the average family from Missouri’s First District. All because of an unauthorized war with no end in sight.

This week, I spoke out against Trump’s corruption at an @OversightDems hearing. The president’s family members and his billionaire friends shouldn’t be getting payouts while the American people suffer. We’re fighting to end Trump’s affordability crisis.

Trump has put America into an affordability crisis. Proud to stand alongside my fellow @HouseDemocrats today to speak out against the Administration’s agenda that prioritizes putting money in its own pockets rather than helping working Americans.

Your vote is your voice! Don’t let Trump buy your vote with his insane promises. On this National Voter Registration day, I want to remind everyone just how important it is for your voice to be heard. Every vote counts in our democracy. Today is a great day to confirm your registration and make a plan to vote in November. 🗳️

Another win for the American people. I’m thankful the Supreme Court ruled against Trump’s corruption, and protected our right to vote. As we head into election season, I’ll continue to hold the USPS and the Trump administration accountable to ensure mail-in voting remains fair and accessible. nytimes.com/live/2026/09/14/…
