In April 2024, the SAVE Act was born as a political stunt to keep Mike Johnson from being booted as House speaker.
Today, the legislation has become a very real threat, and it's critical for Americans to know what’s at stake, Marc Elias writes.

The SAVE Act started as a political stunt. Now it's a real threat.
As we entered 2026, it became clear that Republicans were set up to lose control of Congress in the midterm elections. What followed was predictable.

NEW: Last week, Utah GOP lawmakers voted to reject a court-ordered congressional map. While the move was largely ceremonial, it signals their intent to ask the state Supreme Court — and potentially SCOTUS — to uphold their recently rejected gerrymander.

Brutal but effective public health messaging from New York Public Health.

They push anti-vaxx & anti-science grift.

Right now, Senate Republicans are trying to pass their version of President Trump's budget plan. It's the same story. More attacks on Medicaid and health care, all to pay for tax cuts that benefit the wealthy.
