Oct. 3 (UPI) -- Cori Bush announced her comeback bid for the U.S. House of Representatives on Friday.
Bush, who represents St. Louis and is a former member of the progressive 'squad,' was defeated in her primary by well-funded Rep. Wesley Bell, D-Mo.
"I ran for Congress because I know what it feels like to be a working-class St. Louisan. Too often unseen, unheard, left out," Bush said in an ad. "I promised to fight for St. Louis, and we delivered."
She posted on X: "We need a fighter who will lower costs, protect our communities, and make life fairer. I'll be that fighter."
