SAVE Act just passed House. It is modern-day poll tax that would disenfranchise tens of millions of Americans, end online, mail + voter registration drives & require voters to register in person at election offices, forcing some rural voters to drive 8 hours to register. Total disaster in every way
🚨House voting on SAVE Act today, worst voter suppression bill ever considered by Congress. Could disenfranchise:

-21 million w/out access to citizenship docs
-69 million women who took spouses last name
-ends online + mail registration & voter reg drives

House Republicans are set to pass a voter suppression bill that would disenfranchise millions
“It's a five-alarm fire for American voters and for election officials”

I won’t stop posting this.
How much Elon Musk makes from the government a day: $8 million.

How much a senior on Social Security gets a day: $65

Guess which budget Musk and Trump want to cut?

RFK Jr. is a danger to public health. Every Republican senator who votes yes will own the consequences.

When RFK Jr. follows anti-vax conspiracies instead of science, when he greenlights Trump's anti-abortion agenda, when he cuts healthcare for seniors — remember who voted yes.

@marcelias.bsky.social Do US citizens have standing for a class action suit against Musk for accessing our PII without our consent?

Systems are made of people. They only work if people do their part. Consider now where you will draw the line.

Ask yourself now what you’re willing to be fired over
Where will we draw the line? It’s probably good to know this at all times, but at times like this it would be wise to develop some principles to use as things get worse.

If anyone’s looking for alternatives to GoodReads, I highly recommend StoryGraph. It’s owned by a black woman, and the platform is so much more accessible and easy to use.
