Let’s be clear: the SAVE America Act is an effort to make voting harder for eligible Americans. It is not about election security. It is about restricting access to the ballot & deciding who gets to participate in our democracy. Tell Senators to oppose it: lwv.org/save-act @lwvus.bsky.social

ICE arrested ~200 people during its surge in Maine. Only a few had committed a crime.
DHS data shows <14% of the people they’ve apprehended had charges or convictions for violent criminal offenses.

I voted NO on today's funding bill.
We now have 10 days to negotiate on DHS—and a real chance to hold ICE accountable:
✅ Masks off
✅ Body cams on
✅ Mandatory judicial warrants
✅ No more prisons
✅ Strip funding from the Big Ugly Bill
✅ Get the hell out of Minnesota!
Believe me, it’s a LONG list.
