🔥 55 HOURS on the Missouri House floor.
Republicans tried to rig our democracy with a Trump-ordered gerrymander. They broke the rules. They walked out.
We decided to sit-in the people of Missouri walked IN.
Neighbors from small towns have been driving to the Capitol bringing food, supplies, and the reminder that this fight is bigger than us.
This isn’t just a sit-in. It’s a stand for every voter they’re trying to silence. We’re not tired. We’re not backing down. And we’re not leaving.
🚨 46 HOURS. 🚨
We’re still on the Missouri House floor. Why? Because Republicans, doing Donald Trump’s bidding are shoving through an illegal mid-cycle gerrymander that shreds Kansas City and silences thousands of voters.
They broke the rules. They refused to recognize us. Then they went home.
We didn’t.
We’re still here because democracy doesn’t defend itself. It needs people willing to fight for it. Missouri deserves fair maps, not backroom power grabs.
We didn’t start this fight. But we’re damn sure not backing down.

⏰ 70 HOURS on the Missouri House floor!
We just wrapped an interview on @MSNBC but the real work is right here in Missouri.
Republicans tried to silence us with a Trump-ordered gerrymander. They broke the rules. They walked out. We stayed.
And we’re still here. Excited. Energized. Ready to get back to work if Republicans actually show up.
This isn’t just a sit-in anymore it’s a movement. And we’re not leaving until every voice is heard.

.@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.
⏰ 80 HOURS on the Missouri House floor.
Today we were joined by Capitol visitors, our Democratic colleagues, and even kids who came to the building to see history in the making. And the encouragement hasn’t just come from here in Missouri,it’s been pouring in from across the country. 💪🏾
Republicans may have walked out. But the people keep walking in.
Every hour that passes, this sit-in grows into something bigger than us. It’s a reminder that when we stand up for democracy, we never stand alone.
We’re not tired. We’re not backing down. And we’re not leaving.

Thank you @RayReedMO @ElizabethFuchs @JeremyDean4Mo for holding the line. This illegal power grab at the behest of their infant king is only the start.

via @stltoday “The brief opening gavel was attended by about two dozen of the House’s 159 existing members, raising questions by Democrats about the lack of a quorum.”
“The Constitution means nothing? Nothing?” asked Rep. Elizabeth Fuchs, D-St. Louis. “We need a quorum to do business.” @ElizabethFuchs #moleg

Local governing doesn’t stop at the city borders—having dedicated allies at the state level is vital to our success here at home. 🤝
Yesterday marked the first meeting of the 103rd Missouri General Assembly. Janeka, a policy associate from my office, made the trip to Jefferson City to show support.
Congratulations to Marlon Anderson (D-76), Kimberly-Ann Collins (D-77), Marty Joe Murray (D-78), Elizabeth Fuchs (D-80), Nick Kimble (D-82), and all other state representatives from the city on taking the oath of office. I know they’ll make us proud! 🥳

If elected she is also likely to be the only gay woman in the Missouri Legislature, at a time when the rights of LGBT folks are threatened by the Republicans in that chamber. They need to hear her voice Trust me - vote for @ElizabethFuchs you won’t regret it.
