It’s Hispanic Heritage Month — the perfect time to press play on films that highlight the voices, histories, and cultures shaping our communities. See what’s on our watchlist! 🎬

Happy Bi Visibility Day! We must continue to build a democracy that represents us all!

Trump is trying to rig maps mid-decade to benefit himself in the midterm election. But here’s the truth: even Republican voters don’t want it. It’s time to ban mid-decade redistricting for once and for all.

After Donald Trump started a mid-decade redistricting war, we created 6 fairness criteria to protect the voice of the people. That's why we are the nation's top redistricting organization, and why people like former President Barack Obama are following our lead.

☕️💸 Coffee prices are at a 30-year high — and it’s just one of the many ways the economy is hitting your wallet. From groceries to gas, everything costs more. Are you feeling it too?

🚨Republican and Independent voters agree—Congress must ban mid-decade redistricting. It’s time to stop politicians from rigging maps. It’s time to pass the #RedistrictingReformAct

Our poll shows more than 2/3 of Americans know it's bad for our country when a single party controls how voting districts are drawn, but that hasn't stopped Trump’s mid-decade redistricting power grab. @commoncause.org proudly supports the Redistricting Reform Act” larson.house.gov/media-center...

Politicians should not be able to manipulate district lines for their own gain. That’s why we support Senator Alex Padilla and Representative Zoe Lofgren’s re-introduction of the Redistricting Reform Act. It’s time to put power back where it belongs — with the people. #FairMaps.

🚨 ABC just yanked Kimmel off the air after Trump’s FCC chair threatened their license. When Trump says jump, corporate media asks how high. This is about billionaires versus everyday people. Demand ABC stop caving to Trump. Sign the petition now >> https://bit.ly/3KcPjtE

Today is International Women’s Equal Pay Day — a reminder that women, especially women of color, are still paid less for the same work. Equal pay is about fairness, justice, and democracy. It’s past time to close the gap.

$200k is a lot of money, but integrity is worth more. When a billionaire tried to use our name to mislead voters, we said NO. We returned the money and stood with the people. 💪 Our freedom and our values are at stake — will you help us keep fighting? secure.actblue.com/donate/commo...

Trump wants to make it illegal to disagree with him. He’s asking Congress to help him do just that with a dangerous new law. We expect our lawmakers to reject his anti–free speech crackdown. Add your name: act.commoncause.org/petitions/te...

Trump’s threatening a national emergency if DC’s mayor doesn’t comply with ICE agents striping people from their homes and separating families. He’s dead set on trying to turn our nation's capital into a political battlefield but we refuse to let it happen. It's time to Free DC.

Did you see our poll on @msnbc.com? Momentum is growing for fair maps, including with Donald Trump's own voters.

No American should lose their passport because of what they write or say. Rep Mast’s bill hands Rubio the power to police speech — a direct attack on our First Amendment rights. Congress must reject this dangerous power grab.

Happy National Hispanic Heritage Month! This month and every month, we honor the leadership of Hispanic Americans who continue to strengthen our democracy.

Trump’s hostile takeover has reached Memphis. But make no mistake: this power grab impacts us all. We pushed back in Chicago — and we need to do the same here. Our democracy depends on it.

Today we honor the lives of those killed 24 years ago in the September 11 attacks, their loved ones, and the heroic first responders. We will never forget.

No one should ever face threats or violence because of their political beliefs. Common Cause unequivocally condemns political violence in all its forms and stands for a democracy where differences are debated with respect, not fear.

Our redistricting fairness criteria holds all actors to the same principled standard: people first—not parties. 🔊Listen to our Senior VP of Policy, Omar Noureldin discuss our criteria and the impacts of mid-decade redistricting on NPR. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ROuF...

📊 The results of our September poll are in: Donald Trump's own supporters don't want him to rig the maps. Congress should grow a spine and listen to the people. Full results: www.commoncause.org/press/septem...

“We had to pivot our position to meet this current moment because we are not in normal times," @commoncause.org’s @omarnoureldin.bsky.social told me

In 1957, Congress passed the Civil Rights Act — a landmark step for voting rights. Decades later, we must honor its legacy by ensuring every voice and every vote counts.

Class is in session and the Trump administration is rewriting the rules, silencing voices, and flunking democracy 101! Flip through our yearbook to see which superlatives they earned… and why we’ll keep fighting for a government that actually makes the grade.

Really excited to join @virginiaksolomon.bsky.social - president of @commoncause.org and @stevelevitsky.bsky.social at 1:30 pm ET today for a discussion: "Can We Save American Democracy." Brought to you by @harvardash.bsky.social. Register and join us! ash.harvard.edu/events/can-w...

Extremists want an Article V convention to rewrite our Constitution. But we’re fighting back: CA just rescinded its call, joining WA & CT this year. Together, we’ve taken 12 states off the books!

When Nixon resigned in disgrace, justice should’ve followed. Ford’s pardon denied that. Since 1970, Common Cause has held power accountable — because democracy depends on it.

Right now, partisan lawmakers and out-of-state lobbyists are trying to illegally rig Missouri’s maps to keep themselves in power. It’s a blatant attempt to silence voices and undermine fair representation. Together, we can stop this power grab and protect fair maps in Missouri.

Congress works for YOU — not their stock portfolios. When lawmakers trade stocks, they’re choosing personal profit over the public good. That’s why we’re excited to see a bipartisan bill to BAN congressional stock trading is finally on the table.

On this day in 1957, the brave students of the Little Rock Nine rose above hatred and intolerance to attend their previously all-white high school. 68 years later, we will continue to honor their courage and legacy.

“What counts as personal versus non-personal can be fuzzy, and the FEC doesn’t really have the bandwidth and/or political will to track this and really enforce that difference." -Common Cause's Omar Noureldin

What do the mayors of LA, DC, Baltimore, Chicago, and New Orleans all have in common? 🤔

You know it’s bad when even conservative economists are slamming Trump’s pick to lead the Bureau of Labor Statistics — calling him “unqualified.”

NEW: A federal judge ruled Donald Trump's use of military troops in LA was ILLEGAL. He warned Trump appears intent on “creating a national police force with the President as its chief.” www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

Rising costs are hurting families. Instead of helping, Trump is fixated on a DC takeover. Enough distractions. Focus on what matters – everyday Americans.

Over 700,000 people in Washington, D.C. pay taxes, serve in the military, and contribute to our country—yet they have no voting representation in Congress. It’s time to make DC the 51st state and give every resident the voice they deserve in our democracy.

The majority of Texas reps voted YES on Trump's budget bill—and now TEXANS are paying the price. Now it’s up to us to hold them accountable.

62 years later, the dream is still unfinished. 🕊️ The March on Washington was a call to keep fighting for justice, equality, & freedom. We march on.

🚨 The deadly budget bill could cost Texans 68,000 jobs—and 25 Texas reps voted FOR it. They chose politics over people.
