Respect the fact that in California this is being voted on by the people and not a state legislature elected by already gerrymandered districts!

This is a problem

It’s the inequality

Robert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social · 17h

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

I want to point out that saying Democrat and not Democrats numbs his attack on Democracy.

Must be the Democrats fault, because they don’t control any branch of government right now!

SCOTUS has repeatedly demonstrated it’s corruption and bias

Democracy Docket @democracydocket.com · 18h

Pro-voting groups warn that if the Supreme Court rules to strike down a key provision of the Voting Rights Act, it could give the GOP at least 19 more U.S. House seats — seats that were directly created by the provision. https://bit.ly/4q7aQ7D

Never forget that when Bondi was appointed, Democracy Docket immediately called her out while The Washington Post gave her a thumbs up.

If you value independent, pro-democracy media that won't bow down or obey, support Democracy Docket today. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0
