Cori Bush Receives Support from Squad in Primary
News summary

Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO) is facing a competitive primary challenge from St. Louis County Prosecuting Attorney Wesley Bell, with significant financial backing from pro-Israel groups, including AIPAC, aimed at ousting her. In a bid to rally support, members of the 'Squad', including Reps. Rashida Tlaib, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Jamaal Bowman, held a virtual rally to encourage voter turnout. Bush's vocal criticism of Israel and its actions in Gaza has drawn substantial opposition, leading to fears among progressive Democrats after Bowman's recent primary loss to a more centrist candidate. Despite her challenges, Bush has the backing of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, while Bell has received endorsements from local media and pro-Israel organizations. The primary election outcome could have significant implications for the progressive wing of the Democratic Party as both candidates present contrasting approaches to key issues. Polls indicate a tight race, with recent surveys showing Bell slightly ahead of Bush, intensifying the urgency of the situation.
