Ousted Rep. Cori Bush Signals Potential Return to Politics

The former 'Squad' member, unseated in a Democratic primary, vows to continue her activism and leaves open the possibility of running for office again.

  • Cori Bush, a two-term congresswoman and member of the progressive 'Squad,' lost her seat in the Democratic primary to Wesley Bell earlier this year.
  • Bush has stated she is not stepping away from public life and plans to continue advocating for the issues she championed in Congress.
  • While she has no immediate plans, Bush has left the door open to running for office again, potentially for Congress or another position.
  • Bush emphasized that the 'Squad' will continue its work despite reduced numbers in the upcoming 119th Congress, maintaining their focus on progressive priorities.
  • Jamaal Bowman, another unseated 'Squad' member, has similarly expressed interest in remaining politically active and possibly seeking office in the future.
