Happy New Year, St. Louis! As we step into 2026, let's commit to building a stronger, more united community. Grateful for the opportunity to serve you and excited for what we can achieve together. Here's to health, prosperity, and progress in the year ahead!

Congress has shown me how far we still have to go to build a system that truly works for everyone. But that won’t discourage me. My love for and dedication to the St. Louis region keep me in this for the long haul. In 2026, I’ll keep fighting for the better future we all deserve.

Families shouldn’t be working harder just to fall further behind. I’m proud to cosponsor the American Affordability Act to lower housing, energy, childcare, education, and healthcare costs—and put more money back in working families’ pockets. It’s time to make the economy work for people again.

As Kwanzaa begins today, we honor the principle of unity and celebrate African American culture, heritage, and community. May these seven days inspire us all to strengthen our families and lift each other up. Happy Kwanzaa to everyone observing!

Merry Christmas to the St. Louis region and beyond! It’s time to celebrate our blessings, and cherish the spirit of giving that brings us all together. Wishing you peace and joy with loved ones this holiday season.

It’s hard to miss what’s going on here. A story gets pulled at the same time executives are seeking deals that need government sign-off. That’s not a coincidence.

This Christmas, our office was honored to adopt a local family through the 100 Neediest Cases program. Grateful to be able to show up for our neighbors and share a little joy this season.

The law is clear: the Trump Administration must release the Epstein files by the end of today. They’re refusing to follow a law the President himself signed.

When transparency is denied, the public has a right to ask why.

About 12.3% of Missourians are living with diabetes, up from just 11.2% two years ago. Hospitalization and death rates related to diabetes are also twice as high among Black Missourians.

Growing up, I learned firsthand how the stability of a caregiver and a safe home can shape a child’s future. That’s why I’m proud to cosponsor the Grandfamily Housing Act—to support grandparents who step up to raise their grandkids and ensure they have safe, affordable housing and real support.

Republicans in Congress have been opposing the expansion of affordable coverage since the beginning. Why should we believe they want a solution now?

Families are paying more for groceries, rent, energy, health care, and child care—as wages still fall behind. It’s past time for real answers and real solutions that put working families first.

Proud to support Opening Night of
the 4th Annual Chanukah at the Arch!

Happy Hanukkah to our Jewish neighbors in St. Louis and around the world.

As I’m gathering my thoughts about the horrific attack at Brown University that took two lives, we learned of another hate-driven shooting. This time targeting the Jewish community in Sydney—

Congratulations WashU on this huge win. Let’s keep it going for the three-peat. #Bears

St. Louis families should never be left out in the cold. Protecting LIHEAP means protecting low-income families from dangerous winter conditions.

That’s a responsibility we can’t ignore.

I was glad to meet with Ambassador Sven Alkalaj of Bosnia and Herzegovina to discuss the strong partnership between our two countries.

St. Louis is home to one of the largest Bosnian communities in the nation, and those ties matter.

Reminder: To have health coverage start on January 1, you must enroll by December 15.

Losing coverage or going uninsured isn’t just stressful, it’s expensive. The Affordable Care Act helps millions of working families get quality, affordable health care, including folks with pre-existing conditions

Remember the whole "I'll bring back manufacturing jobs and fix costs on day one?" Well, the facts are we have lost about 50,000 manufacturing jobs since January.

Americans and folks in the St. Louis region are sick of waiting for policies that create jobs instead of destroying them.

Preserving biodiversity is about protecting our future. Proud to see the Missouri Botanical Garden leading the way in seed conservation and climate resilience here in St. Louis.
