Called my congressman who voted for the SAVE act.
Me: What documents will I need to vote if this passes?
Staffer: a DL and birth certificate.
Me: The documents don’t match
Staffer: Then a marriage certificate.
Me: Will my husband need the marriage certificate too?
Staffer: No
Me: See the problem?

This is terrible news. Awful. Just awful. Anyone from Missouri can vouch for me on this one.
Once again, I find myself apologizing to the country for the garbage we’ve sent to DC.

Missouri attorney general acknowledges Amendment 3 renders abortion ban unenforceable
The leader of Planned Parenthood Great Plains says the move is a ploy to prevent a Jackson County judge from potentially knocking down other abortion restrictions.

That asterisk on "didn't" is important as we keep talking about how Democrats need to be more receptive to the working class
Poverty is a major obstacle to being able to vote, and even then a lot of folks won't register or try to vote when they don't see how their vote will matter/change anything

John Tester and Lucas Kunce both decided it was too dangerous to endorse Harris. Neither would even say whether they were voting for her.
They both lost. To voters like me, it came across as sexist. They were trying to appeal to white Trump dudes.
That’s a losing strategy.

The problem isn’t government waste. The problem is that billionaires don’t pay taxes.

6% of school-age children in Missouri are homeschooled.
This is double the historical average.
There's a lot of advantages to homeschooling and Missouri needs to regulate and support.
