Protesters chant "Power of the People" and "This is what Democracy looks like" during rally at the Missouri Capitol as lawmakers change the state's Congressional districts. #moleg#mogov
I guarantee you that Donald Trump knows their names.
So should you.

Three freshman Democrats vs. the entire damn GOP.
The Missouri House Dems are cooking right now on the house floor. Standing up for the constitution and the rights of Missourians to be heard by their government.
Solidarity with the Missouri House Democrats who have spent over 100 hours holding the floor to protest the Republican attempt to taint our democracy, reduce the voice of communities of color, and steal congressional seats. I thanked them for standing up to fascism.
Missouri State Reps Reed, Fuchs, and Dean: You are not in this alone. We are cheering you on, and we are so grateful for your courage as you fight for our democracy.
.@RayReedMO, @JeremyDean4Mo, and @ElizabethFuchs 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.
Today, I am calling on the General Assembly to take action on congressional redistricting and initiative petition reform to ensure our districts and Constitution truly put Missouri values FIRST.
Today @GovMikeKehoe cheered the overturning of EARNED paid sick leave requirements for workers and then immediately talked about how a single mother should never have to choose between caring for a sick child and paying bills.
Yep, I agree.
That’s why voters passed PropA.
I reject the idea that war is strength. I reject the idea that peace is weakness. And I reject the use of our communities as staging grounds for partisan posturing during a global crisis.
Republicans in the Missouri Senate have penned a letter giving their full support to a federal budget bill that even Josh Hawley says, if it passes, "there's going to be a lot of rural hospitals in Missouri that close." #moleg#mosen
