In the aftermath of July 3 legislation, we risk normalizing what we feared. Elections—Democracy's lifeblood—are endangered by suppression. The DOJ is targeting and weaponizing allegations against election officials. Stay alert. Protest season approaches. Gear up for Good Trouble! @lwvus.bsky.social
