Grandview Station gets its name as $850,000 project nears completion The Grandview Station gets its name as an $850,000 project nears completion.

I’m proud to have secured $850,000 in federal funding to support the new Grandview Station, which will serve as a farmers market & public events space for local residents

I’ll keep fighting to bring federal investments that boost economic development back home to #MO05

Chag Pesach Sameach to all those celebrating in #MO05!

As you gather with your loved ones around the Seder table, may this season bring peace and happiness.

And may we all be inspired by the strength of the Jewish people and the continuous fight for freedom.

Happy Passover!

Eid Mubarak to all those celebrating Eid Al-Fitr in #MO05 and around the world!

Wishing you and your loved ones peace and many blessings as you celebrate the end of Ramadan.

Grateful for the opportunity to sit down with local leaders from Lee’s Summit to discuss the need for Congress to boost investments in public safety and critical infrastructure.

I’ll keep fighting to bring these investments back home to #MO05!

Wishing everyone in #MO05 a happy St. Patrick’s Day!

As we celebrate Irish heritage and culture with family and friends, may your day be filled with joy and cheer!

Yesterday I hosted leaders from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines for a roundtable with Kansas City housing leaders to highlight funding opportunities that can expand affordable housing and strengthen our communities.

Partnerships like these help deliver real results for #MO05 families.

Republicans gerrymandered an entire damn state to try to anoint Brattin as the next Congressman for #MO05.

Days into his campaign — with endorsements from Reps. Onder & Alford — and he’s already picking a fight with the family of a fallen firefighter.

That’s who the GOP wants to send to Congress.

Proud to have secured $1 million in Community Project Funding to support this work in #MO05 - investing in programs that give our young people the mentorship, tools, and confidence they deserve.

Our communities want jobs and security, not detention centers representing the worst of humanity. This is an important step, but we must do everything we can to ensure this plan never takes hold in #MO05.

Democrats are fighting to lower your costs because hardworking families in #MO05 should not have to pay $1,426 more this year because of Trump’s tariffs and the Big Ugly Law

I’m thrilled to announce I have secured more than $15 million for local projects across #MO05!

From replacing the Kentucky Avenue Bridge in Independence to supporting public safety initiatives in Kansas City and Lee’s Summit, these investments will help make our communities safer & more prosperous.

Millions of Americans, including tens of thousands in #MO05, are seeing their monthly health care premiums skyrocket because Republicans in Congress refuse to extend ACA tax credits.

At a time when families are struggling to stay afloat, the GOP should put partisanship aside and provide relief.

Need help in the dangerous cold? Here’s a list of warming centers, shelters around the KC metro Frigid temperatures are here in the Kansas City metro, and a number of warming centers are offering refuge from the bitter cold.

As dangerously cold temperatures arrive in #MO05, please be careful and look out for your neighbors.

Rep. Cleaver pens letter condemning possible ICE detention center in Kansas City, Missouri Congressman Emanuel Cleaver II (D-Kansas City) penned a strongly worded letter Tuesday condemning a possible Department of Homeland Security plan to bring an ICE detention center to KCMO.

#MO05 does not support opening one of ICE’s mega detention centers in our community.

As reports indicate DHS is planning to do so, I’m making clear that our community opposes this effort and requesting more information.

I do find it kind of weird that no Republican has filed to run for the gerrymandered #MO05. So, here's my serious/not-so-serious thinking behind why that's happening:

They're waiting for Harrison Butker to run. He's obviously washed at kicking, so why not go into politics?

46,000 Missourians in #MO05 have seen their health care premiums skyrocket since Republicans allowed enhanced ACA tax credits to expire at the beginning of the year.

@housedemocrats.bsky.social and I are voting today to revive these tax credits and lower costs for hardworking families.

Whether it was advancing bipartisan legislation to lower housing costs, bringing federal funding back to Missouri for local projects, or assisting Missouri families with federal agencies, I’m proud of what my office and I have accomplished for #MO05

Follow along for my 2025 Recap!

Parade Park Homes receives nearly $9M in funding but can't start demolition until 2026 Parade Park Homes was awarded almost $9 million in combined federal, state and HOME funding, but the funding approval has delayed the planned demolition.

Thrilled that another $9 million in funding is going to support the redevelopment of Parade Park, expanding access to affordable housing on Kansas City’s east side.

I’ll keep fighting to lower housing costs and support the construction of affordable housing across #MO05

It is deeply disappointing that Congressional Republicans continue to block an extension of Affordable Care Act tax credits that help working-class families afford health care.

Tens of millions of Americans, including 48,000 Missourians in #MO05, will see their premiums sky rocket because of it.

There are tens of thousands of families in #MO05 who will see their health care costs skyrocket on January 1 if ACA tax credits are not extended.

But Republicans in Congress don’t care.

We have so much to be grateful for in the United States of America.

Today, I’m wishing everyone in #MO05 and across the country a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and friends.

Kansas City Rep. Emanuel Cleaver says he’ll vote ‘no’ on ending shutdown The U.S. House will vote Wednesday to reopen the government. U.S. Rep. Emanuel Cleaver II, who represents Kansas City, opposes the plan because it fails to extend Affordable Care Act subsidies that wo...

The Republican spending bill failed to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits that lower health care costs for tens of thousands of families across #MO05.

I refused to support legislation that would lead to premiums skyrocketing for my constituents.

From the very beginning, I have said that I will not support legislation that dramatically raises the health care costs of hardworking Missouri families.

Unfortunately, the Senate’s latest bill will ensure that premiums skyrocket for tens of thousands of families in #MO05.

If Republicans are successful in eliminating ACA tax credits for working-class Americans, Missouri families will see their health care premiums skyrocket.

That’s why I’m fighting to extend these tax credits and lower costs for Missourians in #MO05

The administration’s decision to furlough nearly 80% of the National Nuclear Security Administration federal workforce, which has never happened before despite multiple government shutdowns, undermines our national security and hurts workers in #MO05.

I'm calling on them to reverse this action.

Independence Square’s $3.3M streetscape project brings new sidewalks, landscaping and community space The streets around Independence Square have a fresh new look and a big reason to celebrate.

As I continue fighting to bring federal investments back to #MO05 to revitalize our communities and expand opportunities for Missouri families, find more information on the Independence Square Streetscape Project here:

I was proud to help secure federal dollars for this project through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, and I look forward to the tremendous benefits it will bring to communities across #MO05.

Together, we’ll keep building a better Kansas City for all.
