Missouri House + Senate Progressive Slate

Early voting is underway in Missouri, and the August 4 Democratic primary will decide who represents working people in Congress, who fights for our communities in Jefferson City, and who leads critical local offices in St. Louis.

Our Revolution is proud to support a powerful slate of candidates who will fight for healthcare, housing, workers’ rights, public education, and more. This is how we build a pipeline of progressives ready to stand up for everyday people in the halls of power.  We need leaders to represent the will of the voters—not corporations and special interests.

Meet Our Revolution’s progressive slate for Missouri House and Senate races:

★ ★ ★

Gina Mitten for State Senate — District 4

Former state representative, attorney, and administrative law judge Gina Mitten has the experience and proven progressive record needed in the Missouri State Senate.

During eight years in the Missouri House, Gina fought for reproductive freedom, strong public schools, affordable healthcare, paid sick leave, fair wages, collective bargaining, gun safety, and government accountability.

Gina has consistently voted to protect abortion rights and will stand up to politicians who attempt to overturn laws approved by Missouri voters.

★ ★ ★

Nicole Greer for State House — District 71

Nicole Greer is a Creve Coeur City Council member, former council president, grassroots organizer, and longtime union member committed to expanding opportunity for Missouri families.

Raised by a single parent, Nicole’s family relied on subsidized housing, SNAP, WIC, and free school lunches. She later spent 13 years as a member of the Communications Workers of America, where she saw how collective bargaining, fair wages, and worker protections can transform people’s lives.

Nicole is running to reduce inequality, support organized labor, and bring responsive, community-centered leadership to Jefferson City.

★ ★ ★

Kennedy Moore for State House — District 73

Kennedy Moore is a longtime community organizer who helped lead the successful statewide effort to pass Amendment 3 and restore abortion rights in Missouri’s Constitution.

Kennedy helped train and coordinate thousands of volunteers who collected 380,000 signatures in only three months. When Republican lawmakers moved to disregard the election results and reverse the voters’ decision, Kennedy decided to run for office herself.

In Jefferson City, Kennedy will defend reproductive freedom and Missouri’s initiative petition process, invest in Ferguson-Florissant public schools, protect workers and unions, lower healthcare and utility costs, and fight for safe, affordable housing.

★ ★ ★

Rachel D’Souza for State House — District 79

A lifelong Missouran, nonprofit strategist, and St. Louis Housing Authority commissioner, Rachel D’Souza is running to put working people and families ahead of wealthy special interests.

Rachel will fight to lower healthcare costs, protect reproductive and LGBTQ+ rights, strengthen tenant protections, expand affordable housing and childcare, raise wages, and fully fund public education.

She is also committed to protecting voter-approved laws and securing greater state support for communities still recovering from the devastating May 2025 tornado in North St. Louis.

★ ★ ★

Jimmy Lappe for State House — District 81

Jimmy Lappe is a lifelong labor activist, IBEW Local 1 member, former St. Louis alderman, and St. Louis Public Schools parent with more than 25 years of grassroots organizing experience.

Jimmy helped lead successful campaigns to raise Missouri’s minimum wage, expand Medicaid, defeat the state’s anti-union “Right to Work” law, protect the St. Louis earnings tax, and pass government ethics reforms.

In the Missouri House, he will defend collective bargaining, public education, reproductive healthcare, local democracy, and laws approved directly by Missouri voters.

★ ★ ★

Rep. Ray Reed for State House — District 83

Rep. Ray Reed is a bold young leader working to give the next generation of Missourians a stronger voice in state government.

Ray drew national attention by helping lead a 125-hour sit-in against a Republican congressional redistricting plan designed to undermine fair representation. He has also maintained a 100% Missouri AFL-CIO voting record.

Ray is fighting to protect reproductive freedom, fully fund public schools, expand affordable healthcare and childcare, strengthen unions, defend local control, and stop tax giveaways that shift costs onto working families.

★ ★ ★

Matt Vitale for State House — District 96

Matt Vitale was born and raised in South St. Louis County. He’s a father, disability-rights advocate, and civil-rights enforcement expert who has dedicated his career to expanding accessibility and holding powerful institutions accountable.

Matt will fight to fully fund neighborhood public schools, preserve specialized services for students, lower childcare and healthcare costs, defend paid sick leave and collective bargaining, and protect reproductive freedom.

He will also work to ensure Missouri’s electoral districts fairly represent voters rather than serving the interests of one political party.

★ ★ ★

Tori Schafer for State House — District 99

Tori Schafer is an attorney and civil-liberties advocate who helped lead Missouri’s successful campaign to protect reproductive freedom.

With more than a decade of experience in legislation, advocacy, and statewide campaigns, Tori has argued before the Missouri Supreme Court and successfully challenged policies that threatened Missourians’ healthcare access and fundamental rights. Missouri Lawyers Media named her Lawyer of the Year for her work protecting reproductive freedom.

Tori is running to lower costs for working families, invest in public schools, expand healthcare access, defend civil liberties, protect the environment, and make government answer to voters rather than special interests.
