The @MissouriGOP supermajority, a 🧵

For 20+ years, Republicans have been in charge of our state government. What do they have to show for it?
▶️ 49th in teacher pay
▶️ 4th highest gun death rate in US
▶️ 50th in youth mental healthcare access
▶️ Crumbling roads & bridges 1/

I’ve been knocking doors and talking with Missouri voters for months, and what I’ve heard over and over again from folks on BOTH SIDES of the aisle is that they don’t believe our state government is working for them.

And they’re absolutely right. 2/

Tomorrow we have a chance to flip State Rep. seats across Missouri, and end the Republican supermajority. How are YOU voting? ashleyformissouri.com/voter-resource… 3/3

@cody4mo

Good morning, Missouri! Today, we all need to focus our attention on what @cody4mo and the @MissouriGOP is doing to KILL #medicaidexpansion — once again, actively defying the will of Missouri voters. Tune in: #moleg 1/ sg001-harmony.sliq.net/00325/Harmony/…

Here's how it happens: Rep. Smith, Chair of the Budget Committee, pulled medicaid expansion out of the budget and made it its own bill—HB 20. They're now planning on simply killing that single bill in committee today—actively preventing the FUNDING required to enact expansion. 2/

@GovParsonMO

Let's keep in mind:
1. Expansion passed as a constitutional amendment by a majority of MO voters in 2020
2. @GovParsonMO included Medicaid Expansion funding in his proposed budget
3. Missouri is currently experiencing a budget surplus & more $ is on the way from the feds 3/

“She made me go off, and now there’s three (explicit word) dead people”
“You know, I wish I could take it back, but on the other hand, I really wish I hadn’t been put in that position,” #moleg 1/ ozarksfirst.com/local-news/loc…

This what toxic masculinity looks like folks. Men are victims of the patriarchy as well—unfortunately, it can turn men into monsters, and the people around them suffer the most. But we CANNOT discount the role that access to firearms has in these situations... 2/

I’m so tired of having this conversation every time someone dies by gun violence in our state. I’m tired of hearing that this problem isn’t solvable. And I’m dead set on working with any Republican colleague who is willing to find a BIPARTISAN solution to this epidemic. 3/
