Cori Bush arrived in Congress as an heir to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Now the political neophyte is coming into her own.
Rep. Cori Bush speaks alongside civil rights activist Jesse Jackson at a rally against the end of the eviction moratorium at the U.S. Capitol. | Kevin Dietsch/Getty Images Their fight almost certainly isn't over: Biden’s evictions fix is expected to draw a court challenge that could put the onus back on Congress to cobble together a response. Still, Bush’s allies say the intense pressure from her and other Democrats this week compelled the White House into a step it had been highly reluctant to take just hours earlier.
“She called me to tell me what she was doing, and she said it would mean a lot to her to have me here. She’s one of my members, so I’m here,” Beatty said in an interview after taking part in Bush’s vigil.tensions within the Black Caucus As a nearly 100-member coalition, progressives remain a major power center in caucus decisions. They will have a huge role to play in as the looming, intergenerational battle over House Democrats' next leaders after Pelosi and her longtime deputies step aside.
Afterwards, the two junior members dashed to the House floor in an eleventh-hour attempt to disrupt their party’s plan to leave town by forcing a roll-call vote on whether the House should leave — using a procedural move borrowed from GOP hardliners. But the House had adjourned before Bush and Ocasio-Cortez could get to the floor in time.
When a person argues that they have the right to housing, medical care, or any other tangible resources, they are saying they have the right to someone else’s labor and property. Simply put, they’re saying they have the right to enslave.
It's only the humane thing to do and why we send representatives to Congress to be our voice.
Taking without paying is the Bernie bros mantra. Communism is pure and alive in the progressive Democrats. Why taking a stroll Pol Pot style with Democrats progressive can be fatal for most American? Tankies will be one surviving and smashing heads though.
Thank you Cori Bush for fighting for the people. You are a Shero!
Yes, people shouldn’t have to pay rent. They need that money to buy cigarettes liquor lottery tickets & pot. It’s the government’s responsibility to make sure they have a roof over their head. All those greedy working people refusing to pay higher taxes to support them. Shameful
