Mailing today my 500 letters to voters in MI-03 urging them to vote Nov. 8. Below the goal I set in July when I began writing, but 500 more than none. #GOTV friends! Ask everyone you know (students, family, &c) do you have a plan to vote? If not, help them! #TheBigSend @votefwd

This news is fuel for my mission: the safety & protection of the students of this university. After 99 days of being ignored in front of former President Mark Schlissel’s home, the regents finally made 1 good choice. But there must be many more if U-M is to be fully accountable.

This is voter suppression.

Here’s the legislative analysis of one bill that would **make it a crime** for me or any other election official to share info - on @Twitter or anywhere else - about how to register to vote, vote absentee, find a polling location, or become a poll worker. legislature.mi.gov/documents/2021…

Chauvin was found guilty because he had to be to preserve the current system of policing. The Dept. turned against him to save itself.

Most of us believe that everyone should have a say in a democracy. Anyone talking about "better" or "smarter" voters is using clear, racist dogwhistles - taking a page from the voter suppression handbook. We deserve a world where all of us can vote with no exceptions.

Indeed, the work for peace, justice & equality is intertwined with the struggle over the future of our democracy. It will take all of us working together - guided by truth, facts and an eye towards what’s best for all voters - to get through this moment. But we can. And we will.

The battles for sane gun laws; for political reform to end Georgia-style voter suppression & dark money politics; and for altering or ending the filibuster — all are part of the same struggle for democracy, majority rule & effective government. My column washingtonpost.com/opinions/a-par…

truly wild that the big reformist position in this debate is basically a demand that the Senate operate like the way it did for most of its history

Mounted behind white enslavers’ descendants signing a law to make it hard for Black people to vote is Callaway Plantation, a concentration camp where Callaways forced 319 Black Georgians to work free and build southern wealth that gave these men power they’re trying to maintain.

Thanks @AliVelshi for sharing your family’s story to remind us how, in the words of @repjohnlewis, “Democracy is not a state. It is an act.” The rollback of voting rights sweeping the country requires all of us to push back to guard and protect the vote. I’m in. Are you?

A voice like mine has never been a Cabinet secretary or at the head of the Department of Interior. Growing up in my mother’s Pueblo household made me fierce. I’ll be fierce for all of us, our planet, and all of our protected land. I am honored and ready to serve.

Co-sign. Especially because all the data shows that voters - on both sides of the aisle and everywhere in between - want and benefit from these time tested voting policies that only make our elections more accessible, accurate and secure.

There are a great many orgs that chew up and spit out people who tell them about their equity issues, then implement that person’s suggestions after they’ve left/been fired.

NFL Black Lives Matter commercial showing players kneeling without acknowledging Kaepernick is revisionist posturing happing in real time.
