Cori Bush

Cori Bush is a wife, mother, pastor, and former nurse running to represent the people of Missouri’s 1st Congressional District.

As Congresswoman for St. Louis, Cori has always shown up when it’s hardest. She wrote groundbreaking public safety legislation and delivered millions in violence prevention funds for St. Louis. When floods hit, she secured disaster relief so St. Louis could rebuild. She took on Big Pharma and introduced a bill to cap the cost of insulin at $20 a vial to save families thousands of dollars in life-saving medical care.

Even after her time in Congress, Cori never stopped showing up. After a tornado ripped through St. Louis, Cori was on the ground helping our neighbors. When Trump and his allies tried to strip away our power, Cori stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Missouri Democrats to make sure our voices were heard.

In St. Louis, families are being squeezed from every side. Groceries, rent, housing costs, insurance costs and utility bills keep climbing while wages stay flat. Jobs are vanishing. Our freedoms are under constant attack. Meanwhile, the rich keep getting richer.

Cori has never been afraid to hold power to account, and she never backs down. In 2026, Missouri’s 1st District has the chance to have a fighter in Congress with a plan to address lower costs and has proven to be relentless in fighting to make life better and costs lower for everybody in St. Louis. Cori Bush is that proven fighter.
