Noncitizen voting is already illegal — and exceedingly rare. The SAVE Act doesn’t fix that.
It just makes it harder for YOU — elderly, rural, low-income, and married women — to register.
Call your senators now ☎️202-224-3121.

Mike Johnson just told you the quiet part out loud: Republicans have a plan to gut Social Security next year. They’re waiting until after the midterms so you can’t vote against it.
Don’t let them wait you out.
Make this an issue that matters this November. #HandsOffSocialSecurity

Obama: I am not immune to anger or doubt. But I do know this when we lose faith in each other, when we stop believing that voting matters… we open the door to the most ruthless or the most careless, or the most fearful among us who see some groups and some people as more equal than others

16 years and two Trump terms since Obamacare, and despite doing everything to dismantle it, the Republican Party still hasn't provided a single proposal for an alternative.
Because the Republican plan is for all of us to die prematurely and broke.

1/2. He took the greatest military force in history, lost a war to a middle power in a week, begged the world to save him, & demanded the media lie about this & everything else. I try, but at a simple human level I do not see how anyone mistakes this man’s almost supernatural weakness for strength.
