Cori Bush
The activist's primary win against Rep. William Lacy Clay in Missouri's 1st Congressional District is a milestone for the movement born in Ferguson.
Progressive challenger Cori Bush unseated a longtime incumbent in the Democratic primary in Missouri. If she wins in November, she’ll be joining the “Squad.”
The “Squad” is about to get bigger.
Clay, a 10-term incumbent, relies mostly on family to staff his campaign.

"Well, I look like women in my district," Missouri Democrat Cori Bush says in a dig at body shamers.
