Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Missouri's 5th district, has shared several updates on social media regarding his recent activities and views on key issues. Cleaver, who has been in office since 2005 after succeeding Karen McCarthy, expressed his commitment to housing, infrastructure, and women's rights through a series of tweets.
On January 22, 2025, Rep. Cleaver announced his new leadership role: "I am honored to have been elected to lead the @FSCDems Subcommittee on Housing and Insurance. Together, we will defend funding for federal housing programs and continue to push bipartisan solutions that lower housing costs for American families."
Later that day, he commented on the impact of a significant legislative achievement: "The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law has been instrumental in our economic recovery and the rebuilding of communities across the country, creating millions of jobs while making our roads safer, water cleaner, and bridges stronger. Why is Trump defunding our roads and bridges?"
In another tweet posted on January 22, 2025, Rep. Cleaver addressed ongoing political debates surrounding women's rights: "As the GOP continues their assault on women’s rights, @HouseDemocrats will not stop fighting to #RestoreRoe, protect freedom, and prevent Republican politicians from coming in between women and their doctors!"
