As we learned about Amer’s life, we visited a park built by Amer’s father in his son’s memory, complete with a playground, basketball court, and beautiful murals, as seen in the video. There must be an investigation into his killing and the injury of the other victims.

No parent should have to endure this type of pain, an act of pure evil. Please understand YOUR US tax dollars funded this atrocity.

The IOF alleges they were throwing stones, so they shot Amer 21 times- 6 of those bullets hit him after he was already down on the ground, already dead. Yes, they shot him 6 more times after he was already gone. The other two boys were injured as well in the shooting by the IOF.

He was only 14 years old. Amer Rabee was a Palestinian-American teen from New Jersey, on vacation with his family in the West Bank. He and two other teen boys were out picking almonds when the IOF shot them.

He said more than 150 “settlers” attacked his property. I asked him whether that meant all the invaders in the West Bank had shown up at his home, since Netanyahu claims there are only 150 in total. Mustafa laughed because the number is actually considered to be in the thousands.

He and his wife were in danger of being attacked, but the invaders were scared off before Mustafa and his elderly wife were physically harmed. They are American citizens. This attack, like so many others that happen daily in the West Bank, was funded with your US taxpayer dollars.

We received a call about an attack and went to support the family. This is 78-year-old Mustafa, a farmer from Abu Falah in the West Bank. Invaders attacked his property at 1:15 a.m. on Sunday, 9/27. Four of his vehicles, including a tractor, were burned, and the windows of his home were busted out.

We’ll meet at 6:45 AM and leave promptly at 7:00 AM. Sign up, grab a friend, and join us in Jeff City. We need as many people as possible standing together and making it clear: Missouri voters deserve a voice in our democracy.

Jeff City — we’re coming. On Wednesday, September 2, we’re heading to the Missouri Supreme Court to make sure our voices are heard. Missouri voters deserve a say on the Republican-rigged congressional map. Our democracy belongs to the people, and we’re showing up to defend it.

Teachers spend so much of their own time, energy, and money making sure their classrooms are ready for their students. We want to help carry that load. We’re collecting school supplies specifically for teachers and we’d love your help filling their classrooms with some of the things they need most.

TOMORROW: Our volunteers have made calls, knocked doors, and connected with the people of STL to build our movement. You’ve spent months together with us in our fight to lower costs, abolish ICE, and truly invest in our communities. On Aug. 4, we’ll celebrate you as we watch the results come in.

When St. Louis was hurting, our Congressman stood by, and left St. Louis on an AIPAC-funded trip to Israel. When the floods came, I delivered more than $80 million for recovery. Now I’m running again to keep delivering for you.

SUNDAY AUG 2! I’m so excited to invite our supporters to rally with special guests Melat Kiros and Nina Turner. Our amazing volunteers have done the work to get our message out across the district. Now, this is our moment to organize, mobilize, and fight for a future that puts people over profit.

Thank you to Queers for Cori for talking to neighbors in Tower Grove South! Together, we'll send our movement back to Congress, and we’ll do it while standing with our queer friends and neighbors as the Trump administration and MAGA Republicans in Jefferson City attack their rights and freedoms.

Thank you to Sunrise Movement for your support while I run for Congress to confront the climate crisis, win a Green New Deal, and deliver for the people of St. Louis. I’m so excited to partner with Sunrise again as we grow our movement to win on August 4th.

Today, we remember the 8372 lives lost in the Srebrenica genocide. At the Sebilj of St. Louis, we mourned those murdered 31 years ago, keeping their memory alive to ensure that history can never repeat itself or be rewritten.

Congrats to Brad, Claire, and Darializa. Yesterday, NYC rejected AIPAC, big real estate, and corporate PACs. This August, St. Louis will do the same.

Today is Breonna Taylor’s 33rd birthday. Now, more than 6 years after she was killed by Louisville Metro Police Department officers who forcibly entered her home, the Taylor family has still been denied full justice for her murder, with only one of the officers who shot her being held accountable.
