St. Louis. The Organization for Black Struggle (OBS) proudly endorses Congresswoman Cori Bush in her re-election to represent the 1st congressional district.
Time and time again, the Congresswoman has shown her compassion and commitment to the people of District CD-1. For carrying out her campaign promises, she has been targeted for attacks and slander by conservative forces who do not represent us.
Says OBS Executive Director Jamala Rogers, “We were disappointed that Wesley Bell has chosen to run against Cori Bush. We know that anyone has a right to run for public office, but it should be based on the incumbent not living up to their responsibilities to the constituents they vowed to serve. Cori has been an unwavering fighter and tireless servant for us, and we want to send her back to The People’s House.”
In addition to bringing billions of dollars home to the district to meet the challenging needs of St. Louis families, Cori has stood on principle in protecting reproductive and voting rights, in advocating for affordable and accessible housing and medical services, as well as standing up for the disenfranchised and marginalized citizens in this country.
