Congresswoman Cori Bush is running for re-election to continue to bring everyday people into the focus of DC policy and because she is the people that she serves. She believes that this is a time in history where complacency cannot be the standard while Americans are having to decide between medication and rent, while the justice system over-incarcerates and the education system under-educates. She has been a purpose-driven leader with a proven track record of fighting for the people, even as it threatened her own life.
