Will someone please ask the 89 million Americans who didn't vote in the last election if they are being affected by anything this administration is doing to the other Americans?

Thanksgiving Weekend Reflection. We are winning in the courts — from challenging unlawful federal overreach to protecting Arkansans’ right to direct democracy in. We are registering voters, defending voting rights & fighting disinformation in every community. We won’t give up. @lwvus.bsky.social

We went to court in April. On the last day of October, a federal court issued a decisive ruling in our favor. The President lacks authority to unilaterally alter election procedures—powers that rest with Congress and the states. When we fight, we win. Follow us. Join us. www.aclu.org/press-releas...

Remember the farm workers who harvest the food? We wouldn’t be able to enjoy a Thanksgiving dinner without their hard work.

Sen. Mark Kelly to Stephen Miller: “I got shot at serving our country in combat, and I was there when your boss sent a violent mob to attack the Capitol. I know the difference between defending our Constitution and an insurrection, even if you don’t.”

Another day, another TEN missed opportunities for the DNC to speak on behalf of Dems about the abomination of the day.

Mark Kelly shouldn’t have to defend himself alone.

The DNC, the national Dem PARTY should be speaking up for him and the other members of Congress all over the place.

WHYYYYY

Every voting rights victory counts. Every voter counts. Last Friday, a federal district court in NH ruled in our favor against a defendant who orchestrated & paid for robocalls that used AI to deceive & intimidate voters in the 2024 primary election. Details: bit.ly/43OtzLL @lwvus.bsky.social

Last night the Supreme Court blocked a lower court ruling against the Texas gerrymandered map in order to give the full court time to consider the issue. Civil rights groups challenging the map have until Monday at 5pm to respond. We watch & remain vigilant. @lwvus.bsky.social @lwvtexas.bsky.social

Thousands of New Yorkers held in jail pretrial or on misdemeanors never lost their right to vote but face systemic barriers that keep them from casting ballots. The DDDA ensures equal access to the ballot by establishing uniform, accountable processes.

The Power of Voting – Our Voice, Our Future

As an Alaskan, I can’t think of a more important moment than now to recognize just how powerful our vote truly is. Voting is not just a civic duty – it is our voice, our representation, and our protection against decisions being made about us without us.
