Working-Class Fighters for the Missouri House
This November, Missouri voters have an opportunity to send a new generation of leaders to Jefferson City — leaders rooted in their communities and ready to fight for working people.
Across the state, Our Revolution is backing candidates who are taking on corporate power, defending public education and workers’ rights, protecting reproductive freedom, lowering costs, and putting the voices of everyday Missourians ahead of powerful special interests.
From St. Louis and its suburbs to Springfield and St. Charles, these candidates are building the kind of grassroots power we need to change Missouri from the bottom up.
Don Looney — House District 63
Don Looney is a union member, father, and longtime advocate for working people running to represent HD-63. His children attended Wentzville public schools, and his own experience as a UAW member informs a campaign centered squarely on economic justice.
Don is fighting to strengthen unions and workers’ rights, raise wages, expand healthcare, protect reproductive freedom, and provide free early childhood education.
Nicole Greer — House District 71
Nicole Greer is bringing years of local public service to the fight for HD-71. She represented Ward 2 on the Creve Coeur City Council from 2020–2024, served as Council President, and returned to the council in 2025.
Now, Nicole is running to take that community-focused leadership to Jefferson City and give residents of Creve Coeur and northern unincorporated St. Louis County a stronger voice in state government.
Kennedy Moore — House District 73
Kennedy Moore is a Ferguson community organizer who has built her campaign around people-powered leadership.
Her organizing has focused on helping everyday Missourians challenge systems that leave communities without a meaningful voice in the decisions affecting their lives. She’s running to bring that grassroots organizing experience directly into the Missouri House.
Rachel D’Souza — House District 79
Rachel D’Souza is a lifelong Missourian, small-business owner, nonprofit leader, and mom of two running to build what she calls a “healthier, fairer Missouri.”
Born and raised in St. Louis, Rachel currently serves as an appointed official with the St. Louis Housing Authority, where her work includes expanding access to safe, stable, affordable housing. Her campaign is centered on working families, strong communities, equity and opportunity, and accountable government.
Jimmy Lappe — House District 81
Jimmy Lappe is a labor activist, IBEW Local 1 member, former St. Louis alderman, and public-school parent with decades of grassroots organizing experience.
Jimmy is running on a distinctly pro-worker agenda: defending collective bargaining, opposing “Right to Work,” protecting public education, strengthening Missouri’s social safety net, and defending the ballot initiative process so voters — not politicians — have the final say. His campaign website is listed as JimmyLappe.com by IBEW Government Affairs.
Matt Vitale — House District 96
Matt Vitale is a public-school dad running to break the Republican supermajority in Jefferson City.
His campaign draws a sharp contrast around two kitchen-table issues: fully funding public schools and protecting fair labor standards, including earned sick leave. Matt is running on the argument that Missouri’s government should respect the decisions voters make at the ballot box instead of overriding them.
Tori Schafer — House District 99
Tori Schafer has spent her career defending the constitutional rights of Missourians, including reproductive freedom and voting access.
She’s running to put that experience to work in Jefferson City, with priorities including strong public schools, affordable living, accessible healthcare, environmental protection, gun-violence prevention, and a government that listens to its people.
Mary Ann Perkins — House District 100
Mary Ann Perkins came home to Missouri after spending more than 15 years working with the United Nations overseas — and jumped into the fight for reproductive freedom.
Her campaign points to her work opposing Missouri’s abortion ban and organizing around the successful constitutional amendment protecting abortion rights. Now she’s running to defend reproductive freedom, public education, earned sick leave, and the power of Missouri voters to make decisions at the ballot box.
Cat Clayton — House District 105
Cat Clayton is running in St. Charles to bring a fresh perspective and greater accountability to the Missouri House.
A lifelong independent before becoming a candidate, Cat says Missouri needs more balance in Jefferson City and representatives willing to listen rather than simply follow partisan politics. Her campaign is focused on everyday affordability, public education, and healthcare.
Katelyn Zach — House District 133
Katelyn Zach is a Springfield community advocate whose work has put her face-to-face with Missouri’s affordability and housing crises.
After working for a nonprofit helping families achieve financial stability and homeownership, Katelyn became a case manager working directly with people experiencing homelessness. She’s running for HD-133 with firsthand experience of what happens when families are forced to choose between necessities like rent and groceries.
Building Power From the Bottom Up
These races are exactly why Our Revolution organizes up and down the ballot.
State legislatures are where fights over wages, public schools, reproductive freedom, healthcare, housing, voting rights, and corporate power are playing out every day. And changing who holds those seats is how we begin changing who holds power.
Every door. Every call. Every text. Every vote.
When we organize, we win.
