Governor Kehoe just expanded the special session call to increase disaster relief funding and add new tax incentives, housing aid, and subsidies to keep the Chiefs and Royals in Missouri. The new call outlines 14 items for the legislature to consider. 🔗 lnks.gd/2/32tZ5Xb

It’s been so fun commuting into work with the kids each day this week as they’ve taken part in the Health Sciences District Academy. So grateful for the extra time together before heading back to Jeff City and proud to see them exploring careers in healthcare right here in KC. 💙

Democrats from Jackson, Platte, Clay, Cass, and Lafayette counties are proud to stand together at the Kansas City Pride Parade!

Back in Jeff City for special session. I’m not here to play politics; I’m here to make sure District 29 gets a fair deal. If you believe in level-headed, people-first leadership, I’d be grateful for your support: bit.ly/CrossleyForMO

Honored to join colleagues today as Governor Mike Kehoe signed SB 81 into law. This bipartisan bill strengthens public safety and includes my legislation to extend the Line of Duty Compensation Act, supporting families of fallen first responders. #moleg

Being their dad is the greatest honor of my life. They make me braver and more determined to build a world worthy of them. Happy Father’s Day to every dad doing their best to show up with love and presence.

Breaking: The Chiefs have walked away from land contracts in Kansas that have expired. Presumably, the Chiefs will stay in Missouri at this point. #ChiefsKingdom

They said a Democrat couldn’t win here. We proved them wrong. Twice. Since then, I’ve worked across the aisle to defend public schools, expand mental health care, and put people over politics. Now I need your help to hit our June 30 goal. Can you help?🔗bit.ly/CrossleyForMO

A new report today from Missouri Department of Health & Senior Services says 80% of pregnancy-related deaths in MO were preventable. But yesterday, the exact supports moms need to survive - funding for doulas, crisis care, and mental health - were vetoed. We MUST do better. health.mo.gov/pamr #moleg

Last week I joined leaders from across the country at #FutureSummit in DC, the largest bipartisan gathering of Gen Z and millennial lawmakers. We shared bold ideas, built coalitions, and imagined what a stronger, more collaborative future could look like. Thank you @FutureCaucus!

Today, I was proud to see the governor sign my bill giving permanent designation to the Officer Cody Allen Memorial Highway. Cody gave everything in service to Independence and the Independence, MO Police Department, and now his sacrifice and legacy will be remembered for generations to come. #moleg

It’s our day, Independence! 🇺🇸

The Boom in the Bottoms is happening all weekend. I am down here for work and it’s already busy this morning. Definitely worth the trip to check out great vintage shopping, live music and local food, distilleries and breweries.

Just spent a week of vacation with Jess, our kids, my parents, and my sister’s family in Mexico at Xcaret, and my heart is full. We swam with dolphins, shared sunsets, and made the kind of memories that remind you what matters. Grateful beyond words for this time together.

Happy 17 years to this guy, who impresses me more every day and puts up with my periodic use of W rizz.
