As predicted, women in New Hampshire had a hard time voting yesterday because of the new proof of citizenship law:
“It doesn’t have my married name on it,” she said. Town voting officials then sent her away a second time, to get her marriage certificate.

NH’s new ID requirements send some would-be voters home to grab passports, birth certificates
The law requires all new voters to show proof of their U.S. citizenship. For some, that meant making multiple trips to and from the polls before finally casting a ballot on Tuesday.

For those toiling every day to further the cause of justice, whether that’s typing away here, protesting on the streets, calling your representatives, or some other effort, your contribution matters.

A small North Carolina town has launched the nation’s first-ever climate accountability lawsuit against an electric utility.
The litigation, filed by officials from Carrboro, North Carolina, accuses Duke Energy of waging a “deception campaign” to obscure the climate dangers of fossil fuels.
