Our democracy has no room for political violence.
Only 12 states & Washington, DC, prohibit both open and concealed carry of firearms at poll sites. With increased gun violence and intimidation of voters and election workers, states must enact stronger laws to protect voting from violence and intimidation.bit.ly/46gJr8m

We all deserve a democracy free of corruption.

As poll workers, Ruby Freeman and her daughter Shaye Moss protected our democracy in the 2020 election and were met with violence because of Trump's and Rudy Giuliani’s lies.
We demand accountability.

"Today is a sad day in American constitutional law and in the lives of LGBT people. The Supreme Court...declares that a particular kind of business, though open to the public, has a constitutional right to refuse to serve members of a protected class."

SCOTUS struck down the federal student debt forgiveness program.
Millions of everyday people were counting on this relief. We deserve to live in a democracy where we all have freedom of opportunity.

The Supreme Court must be independent and impartial.
That’s why Congress asked Republican mega donor Harlan Crow to list the gifts he has given to SCOTUS justices and their family members. Supreme Court justices should never be for sale.

In a blatant attack on our democracy, Montana Rep. Zooey Zephyr has been expelled for advocating for her constituents.
No elected leader fairly chosen by the voters should be dismissed for the dissent and debate they are elected to engage in. @ZoAndBehold

#OTD in 1971, the House voted 401–19 in favor of the #26thAmendment, which would lower the voting age to 18.
Our democracy is strongest when we all can vote. That’s why Common Cause led the campaign that won the 26th amendment to the U.S. Constitution. @CCEmergingPower

The NC Supreme Court already ruled against #LawlessLawmakers’ attack on our right to vote. But the court granted them a rehearing. This is unheard of.
