The DOJ just filed lawsuits against 6 states demanding access to voters’ sensitive personal data like addresses, driver’s license numbers, and Social Security info. This is nothing more than a dangerous abuse of power designed to undermine trust in our elections.

On #NationalVoterRegistrationDay, I wrote for @time.com about the surge in state-level attacks on voting: 160+ anti-voter bills were introduced this year alone. These copycat bills aren’t isolated, they build on federal efforts to silence eligible voters. time.com/7317625/vote...

The Trump admin is setting the stage for election interference at an unprecedented scale. These actions lay the groundwork to make voting harder & baselessly undermine election results. Our job is to fight back, support election officials, & protect voters every chance we get.

Trump’s DOJ seeks election equipment in red state ahead of 2026 election. The unusual request for the equipment comes after Trump said he would lead a movement to get rid of voting machines and continues to falsely claim he won in 2020 wapo.st/4mP2pfc

Our democratically-run election system is one of the things that keeps American elections safe. Federal laws, passed by Congress, are the appropriate way for the federal gov. to impact voting policy – not oversteps that threaten access for eligible voters.

Here are the facts: voting machines undergo extensive testing before each election to guarantee reliability and accuracy, and eliminating mail-in voting would strip away a reliable and safe method that millions rely on. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

🎙️ Our Executive Director @hannahkfried.bsky.social joined Justice by Design podcast to talk about the fight for voting rights – and why protecting democracy starts locally. Tune in to learn about what's at stake and how you can be an advocate for your community. ⤵️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzdV...

Tell that to the nearly 47 million Americans who chose to vote by mail in 2024

"Once the govt. crosses the line into sweeping, unexplained grabs for voter data and more, it’s hard to walk it back. If states cave to these requests without demanding a clear legal foundation, they are inviting future administrations to make more such requests." www.votebeat.org/2025/08/11/j...

Last week, All Voting is Local Florida joined partners and community advocates for a night of food, music, and joyful solidarity in Orlando to mark the 60th anniversary of the #VotingRightsAct. Thank you to everyone who showed up to fight for every voter's access to the ballot🗳️

Mary Kay Heling is one of 200,000+ North Carolinians at risk of being purged from the voter rolls, despite doing everything right. As some leaders from the White House to state houses make wild claims about voter registration, it's real people whose rights they're taking away

State election officials rightly asking questions and pushing back as the Trump Administration seek access to their voting equipment and to private voter data. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Today marks 5 years since the passing of John Lewis — a fearless champion for voting rights. We honor him by doing what he taught us: making good trouble for what’s right. Join us. Let’s carry the torch and show the world that #GoodTroubleLivesOn.

We're proud to stand in solidarity with 600 nonprofit orgs to speak out against efforts from members of Congress to slam nonprofits they disagree with. These attacks are a dangerous violation of fundamental American freedoms. cfce73f5-6016-42c8-9343-fa96f8863f56.usrfiles.com/ugd/cfce73_7...

A Georgia appeals court reaffirmed that election officials must certify election results on time – no exceptions. This ruling upholds a core principle of our democracy: the will of voters cannot be delayed or denied. There’s no place for partisan interference in our elections. bit.ly/3Gd6FFq

A known election denier now sits on the DeKalb County board of elections, in the metro Atlanta area. She's tried to silence voters, spread lies about elections, and led mass voter challenges against her own neighbors. Voters deserve better. bit.ly/449l26H

Admittedly, cities in Wisconsin adopting electronic pollbooks may not be the most exciting thing you've heard this week but it's critical to making elections more accessible & fair. Read more from my @allvotingislocal.bsky.social colleague @samliebert.bsky.social madison.com/opinion/lett...

📢Today, we joined a coalition of pro-democracy groups to urge Governor Hobbs to veto SB 1001 – a bill that would make voting harder for thousands of Arizonans. Here's what you need to know🧵⤵️

Juneteenth reminds us that freedom has always been delayed but never denied. From Galveston in 1865 to the ballot box today, Black communities have fought for liberation and the power to decide their futures. Today, we renew our commitment to protecting and advocating for Black political power.

Mike Lindell didn't just spread lies, he endangered the people who make our elections possible. I'm glad to see he's being held accountable for his actions that put election workers in danger. bit.ly/44luZxP

✅ Big win for voters. A federal judge blocked a harmful provision in a recent executive order that would’ve forced people to show proof of citizenship—like a passport—just to register to vote. The Constitution is clear: states run elections, not the president. www.npr.org/2025/06/13/n...

The solutions outlined in our agenda go beyond 2026 and 2028 elections — these are the long-term measures we need to achieve a democracy that truly works for all and adequately protects all voters. Read our Pro Voter Agenda today⬇️ allvotingislocal.org/pro-voter-ag...

This week, @allvotingislocal.bsky.social is celebrating 3 yrs as an independent organization! 🎉 While we’re 3 years strong, our roots go deeper. We launched in 2018 as a campaign of @civilrightsorg.bsky.social Education Fund & we’ve been on the ground since, defending democracy & protecting the vote

New piece sheds light on the damage already done by US DOJ reversing course on voting rights. Dismissed cases and a reported "freeze on all new civil rights cases.” Here’s the tally from @chiraagbains.bsky.social

No one should have to face armed intimidation to cast a ballot. My colleague Kerry Durmick writes in a new op-ed why polling places must be safe, gun-free zones as Nevada considers legislation to do just that. bit.ly/4kgOFJ1

We could all use some good news. The Nevada legislature just passed a law expanding access to the ballot for the 21 tribes in the state - more than 30,000 people. allvotingislocal.org/statements/p...

Great news for Michigan: U.S. Supreme Court declines to hear a lawsuit to roll back Michigan voting rights. This affirms what Michigan voters have repeatedly told us: they want free and fair elections. michiganadvance.com/2025/05/20/u...

At @allvotingislocal.bsky.social, we believe in a democracy that invites people in and ensures a safe and accessible voting process for everyone. Read our 2024 Impact Report to learn how we made this vision a reality in our target states ⬇️ allvotingislocal.org/2024-look-ba...

Giving the Treasury Secretary unchecked power to label nonprofits as “terrorist-supporting” will not keep Americans safe. This is not about safety, it’s about coordinated efforts to target and silence groups and the communities they help. www.stopgovernmentcensorship.org/press-releas...

2024 presented unparalleled challenges for free & fair elections. Incredible work by the staff of @allvotingislocal.bsky.social, our partners, election officials and voters themselves led to expanded access to the ballot for 13 million Americans across our 8 states last year. Read more ⬇️

Chilling to see a White House official threaten criminal charges against a governor for doing the ordinary work of his job - just a week after the arrest of a judge in the same state. Proud of @allvotingislocal.bsky.social joining 20 orgs in condemning threats against Wisc @govevers.wisconsin.gov

"2,628,902 women in this state don’t have birth certificates that match their current legal name, and if they don’t have an updated passport, they’ll be barred from registering to vote" - AVL Action Ohio state director Kayla Griffin www.cleveland.com/opinion/2025...

Statement from @allvotingislocal.bsky.social: "These first 100 days have been a five-alarm fire for the freedom to vote, at the federal level and in the states." Read more: allvotingislocal.org/statements/a...

"Moments like this test our values." See @allvotingislocal.bsky.social's statement together with our Wisconsin partners on today's arrest of a sitting judge. www.wispolitics.com/2025/wiscons...

🚨We should pay attention when my @allvotingislocal.bsky.social colleague + former election security specialist Ashiya Brown tells us that CISA - the federal agency charged with securing the nation's election systems - is a major reason "voters are able to cast their ballots freely + fairly"

As Congress + state legislatures take up bills that require millions of Americans to jump through hoops to show they're citizens before they can vote, we should remember the real people these laws hurt. Like this Ohio man who's been a citizen since 1975. www.cleveland.com/court-justic...

Major victory for our partners, election officials, and VOTERS! District court affirms: the President cannot direct the EAC - an independent and bipartisan commission - to force voters to show a birth certificate or passport to vote. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-e...

In a moment when voting rights are under attack, read more from my @allvotingislocal.bsky.social colleague Deborah Rose Hinchey about how Pennsylvania voters need, want and deserve more options to cast their ballot

Appreciated the chance to talk to @bychrisbrennan.bsky.social about how the SAVE Act's requirement that you show a birth certificate or passport to vote would hurt *all* Americans www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...

Not an overstatement to say that if the unnecessary and discriminatory SAVE Act becomes law it will be disastrous. It will rob millions of Americans of the freedom to vote. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

The administration continues to seek retribution against former gov officials, including one who refuted lies about the 2020 election. Absolutely chilling. apnews.com/article/trum...

Important news out of Wisconsin: former state supreme court judge who spread election lies and "investigated" 2020 election agreed to surrender his law license for his misconduct. The "investigation" cost Wisconsin taxpayers $2.3M & found exactly nothing. apnews.com/article/gabl...

Must-read from @frankabruni.bsky.social calling the recent Trump executive order on elections + voting "as potentially chilling as any of the many others.... He will seize and hold on to power however he must, with no shame about the means." www.nytimes.com/2025/04/03/o...
