Cori Bush, a U.S. Congresswoman representing Missouri’s 1st district since 2021, has been vocal on social media about issues concerning justice and community safety. Her recent posts address systemic problems and propose solutions for enhancing public safety.
On December 10, 2024, Congresswoman Cori Bush addressed the family of Tyre Nichols, the Memphis community, and those affected by systemic issues. She stated: "To Tyre’s family, the Memphis community, and every person harmed by our broken system—I see you, I hear you, and I will never stop fighting for justice & accountability. Tyre’s legacy demands nothing less."
In another post on the same day, Bush emphasized her vision for community safety. She advocated for an inclusive public safety system that prioritizes ending police brutality and investing in alternatives that center on impacted communities. Her message read: "Community safety should mean safety for ALL. We must keep fighting for a public safety system that: Ends police brutality Invests in community-based alternatives Centers the voices of those most impacted"
