Yesterday the U.S. Department of Justice added another target to their growing demand for unfettered access to private voter data—Minnesota. Our position is unchanged. Private voter data is not a political weapon. Period. @lwvus.bsky.social @lwvva.bsky.social

Last minute mailing could void your vote. New Postal Service operations could delay your postmark. Your voice could be silenced on a technicality. Make a plan: ✅ Mail 7+ days early ✅ Request a hand-stamp postmark at the counter ✅ Use an official drop box Let your voice be heard! @lwvus.bsky.social

Earlier this year CNN ran an interview with a pastor claiming women should lose the right to vote. We said, OH NO! “The idea that women should surrender their vote to male authority is an affront to every American who has fought, marched & bled for the right to be heard.” bit.ly/3MO5SxD

We are optimists. We have to be. It took 72 years of grit to win the vote in 1920. We've got more work to do empowering voters. We're convinced we can get it done defending democracy. History proves that persistence pays off. Bring on the new year. @lwvus.bsky.social @lwvva.bsky.social

On the eve of the holidays, we mourn the death of Jean Wilson Brutus at a NJ ICE facility. Noone deserves inhuman treatment at the hands of the law. In a constitutional democracy, the government has a moral & legal duty to protect the lives in its care. This is unacceptable. bit.ly/4g5RcEq

The federal government has filed 22 lawsuits demanding unparalleled access to voter rolls. The DOJ promises to sue every state that does not comply with its demands. The League's position is clear. Private voter data is not a political weapon. @lwvus.bsky.social @lwvva.bsky.social

Across the country, the US Department of Justice is issuing sweeping demands and filing bad-faith lawsuits seeking unredacted voter files from states and local jurisdictions. This is unacceptable. Private voter data is not a political weapon. www.lwv.org/newsroom/pre...

More than 300,000 Missouri voters signed a petition demanding a mid-cycle redistricting partisan gerrymander be put to a statewide referendum. Even better. A federal judge dismissed an attempt to stop voters from pursuing the referendum. Now we wait. Next move. @lwvmo.bsky.social @lwvstl.bsky.social

More than 50 years after the Voting Rights Act passed, full protections for voting rights are not guaranteed. Some people still face challenges participating in elections due income, health, age, race, disability, and gender. Tell Congress to guarantee the right to vote. www.lwv.org/take-action/...
