Californians, we need to be reaching out and advocating for the release of our own just as Van Hollen has been fighting for Garcia. If they can take one of us, they can take any of us!!
Hey @padilla.senate.gov and @schiff.senate.gov
Senator Van Hollen has been doing a lot to help Kilmar Abrego Garcia, what are you doing to help Andry Hernandez Romero the gay gentleman, seeking asylum, who was taken from San Diego and thrown into the concentration camps in El Salvador?!!
Editorial: We must all advocate for Andry’s release
Gay makeup artist Andry Jose Hernández Romero sits in a notorious prison in El Salvador for no good reason.

Imagine you were dealing with a person who would report that there was two and there was also this other two but didn't want to add them up to get to four, because getting all the way to four felt like making a statement and they didn't want to alarm anybody or be accused of making an accusation.

A thread as the SAVE Act comes to the Senate.

Senator Tammy Baldwin, D-WI
@baldwin.senate.gov

American women face real concerns under the proposed SAVE Act whereby voter ID must match your birth certificate.

You were born Tammy Suzanne Green Baldwin.

Do you share these concerns?

I'm calling for an investigation into whether President Trump manipulated the market to benefit his Wall Street donors—all while working people and small businesses paid the price.

Did Trump help insiders cash in on his tariff flip-flopping? It sure looks like corruption.

The SAVE Act would erect unnecessary barriers to registering to vote in the U.S. especially for women who have changed their surname, trans voters, young voters without a passport, and more.

I have a sinking feeling all the nonsense with the markets today is meant to distract us from this vote in the Senate tomorrow. We need clear-eyed focus on this. Call your senators. VOTE NO ON THE SAVE ACT!!!!
Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married?

Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote.

Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

69M married women could lose their voting rights if the SAVE Act is passed. Transgender individuals too.

Why? Absent a valid passport, you must present a birth certificate *with the same name as your registration* to be registered.

This is insane!
