The Lee's Summit Democrats continue to grow! Over 80 people packed the house for last night’s meeting.

People are ready to flip these House and Senate seats and send a message to the Republican supermajority, uphold the will of the voters or be voted out!

Thank you to Pattie Mansur and Mark Sharp for hosting a town hall in South KC to talk gerrymandering and the gutting of the initiative petition process.

And thank you Respect MO Voters and People Not Politicians for explaining the importance of the two petitions circulating!

Town Hall Tomorrow! Join Representatives Mark Sharp and Pattie Mansur at the South KC Chamber at 6pm.

"Companies are gonna pay a lot of money for that... And they are very happy about it."

H-1B Visa will be $100,000 per year. Per employee. But don't worry, Trump says the companies love it.

I'm sure these costs won't be passed down to us in any way.

This year we focus on capturing the energy of the moment and setting us up for success in 2026. 2025 is for organizing and building. In Jackson County we have seats to flip including State House, State Senate, and County Legislator seats. The money we raise is crucial to make this possible.

News that Trump has sent orders to MO Republicans to carve up the 5th falls right in line with the disrespect for the will of the voters we have seen from Republicans in our state. This year they voted to overturn our vote on paid sick leave, minimum wage, and to once again ban abortion in MO.

Senator Klobuchar has been a champion for the working class, including passing legislation to lower prescription drug costs that saved seniors $1.5 billion in one year. She fights for our farmers & rural communities & has worked hard to defend the fundamental values at the core of our Constitution.
