Cass County (MO) Democrats

Fighting for our democracy!

[Progress MO @ProgressMO]

Alford says he doesn't know the credentials or experience of the nominee to lead intelligence operations. But since he's loyal to Trump, Alford says he must be the best man for the job.

[Progress MO @ProgressMO]

The same people tried the same lies next door with Kansas and it bankrupted their state.

[Missouri Democrats 🇺🇸 @MoDemParty]

Why does @MissouriGOP hate when citizens have rights?🤔

[Chuck Hatfield @chuckhatfield]

I’m old enough to remember when Missouri Republicans were against tax increases without a vote of the people.

[Progress MO @ProgressMO]

Seems our GOP supermajority in the state legislature and every statewide officeholder should have done something about this! Or maybe even our GOP Congressmen when voting to cut programs that help small businesses!

[Progress MO @ProgressMO]

This is the same BS they fed Kansas. How did that work out for them?

[Progress MO @ProgressMO]

@markalfordkc So what happened to this?

[Missouri AFL-CIO @MOAFLCIO]

LABOR ALERT: Brothers & Sisters - our freedom to hold politicians accountable through the initiative petition is under attack!

Amendment 4 would take the power AWAY from the people while giving more power to politicians in Jefferson City.

Amdt. 4 MUST be defeated this August!

[Senate Democrats @MoSenDems]

real “please clap” energy

[Stephen Webber 🇺🇸 @s_webber]

@RapidResponse47 @VP FYI Missouri Republicans overturned a voter approved ballot initiative last year and completely eliminated guaranteed earned sick time (and the minimum wage escalator) from Missouri workers

[Elizabeth Warren @ewarren]

A majority of Americans can’t afford rent on a modest 2 bedroom.

People aren't buying their first home until 40.

Since 1990, the cost of housing is up 174% while wages have flatlined.

We're in a housing crisis. Congress needs to act like it.

BRATTIN: Missing votes but still cashing checks (of your money).

[The Obama Foundation @ObamaFoundation]

"Hope is that stubborn thing inside us that insists, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us so long as we have the courage to keep reaching, to keep working, to keep fighting." — President Obama

[Progress MO @ProgressMO]

Here's how Alford's actually delivering for our communities.

[Senate Democrats @MoSenDems]

Missouri Republicans passed a law to use STATE tax dollars to reimburse wealthy people paying FEDERAL capital gains, and now:

[Senate Democrats @MoSenDems]

The Republicans’ budget underfunds Missouri’s public school classrooms by hundreds of MILLIONS of dollars.

That’s why ALL Senate Democrats voted NO. Missouri cannot move forward if our kids fall behind.

[Senate Democrats @MoSenDems]

After fighting to defend a $6.4 million earmark for a (second!) bridge in a town with a population of 1,841 people, the Senate Republicans have left the Chamber for a closed-door celebration in the Senate Lounge.

[Senate Democrats @MoSenDems]

Last night, Republicans cut mental health funding. Tonight, they’re lighting some lights and want applause:

[Pete Buttigieg @PeteButtigieg]

Today's Supreme Court decision reverses hard-won progress under the Voting Rights Act.

It means less representation for millions of Black Americans and other voters of color, as lawmakers gain greater ability to manipulate their districts. There will be more extreme partisan gerrymandering, lopsided elections, less accountable government, and policies that hurt rather than help with everyday life.

But this is no time to be demoralized, because we know it does not have to be this way. We can mobilize around reform, new laws, and where necessary, constitutional amendments for fairer government. Only then can we feel the benefits of a balanced Court, a truly representative Congress, and an election system free from the distorting power of extreme corporate and partisan manipulation.

[Senate Democrats @MoSenDems]

Our kids get the draft, his kids get the cash.
