They're trying to take our vote because they fear our power. New restrictions. Purged rolls. Closed polling places. All designed to silence Black and Brown voices. But John Lewis taught us: our vote IS our resistance.

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

Trump’s SAVE America Bill IS NOT A VOTER ID BILL! It gives Trump total control over who can vote & creates a massive federal surveillance system. Rural, elderly, & disabled voters have to travel IN PERSON to register. It requires COPIES of your papers to vote by mail which increases IDENTITY THEFT.
