Our democracy — checks and balances, the rule of law, free and fair elections — is under direct and sustained attack.

Women Voters Will Be Harmed by the SAVE Act. Urge your members of Congress to vote “No.”
Even as we commemorate #womenshistory, Congress is considering the SAVE Act which would make voting harder for millions of women.

Call your reps and demand they stop the SAVE Act! It requires that a woman's surname has to match their birth certificate and that a marriage license is not proof of a name change. It could disenfranchise millions.

The SAVE Act would put up barriers to voting by requiring every single American citizen to provide very specific documents, chiefly by either presenting a passport or an original copy of their birth certificate, in person when registering to vote and anytime they update their voter registration.

No wonder they want to defund NPR. ☺️
Thousands of people protest in Washington, D.C., and across the U.S. on Presidents Day
The protestors participated in the 50501 Movement, which originated in response to the Trump administration and its efforts to cut government spending. Many chanted "Where is Congress?'"
