Donald Trump is once again threatening to issue an executive order targeting voting. This is an effort to subvert the Constitution and the 2026 election, which grants states and Congress but not the president power to regulate federal elections.
If he does this, we will sue and we will win (again).

Unite Against Book Bans!
Books once smuggled behind the iron curtain to promote freedom & democracy are now banned in some schools here. What are we hiding? The First Amendment forbids government censorship of what we read. What we think. @lwvus.bsky.social Read the fascinating history: www.nytimes.com/2025/07/27/o...

Saying the quiet part out loud.
A Texas Republican lawmaker suggested in 2022 that a way to deal with immigrants is to “shoot, shovel and shut up.”
The comments could strengthen the legal challenge to the state’s gerrymander by demonstrating racial discrimination against Latinos.

Trump’s illegal militarization of LA is causing California fire crews to operate at just 40% capacity, leaving communities vulnerable and at risk.
Donald Trump, if you care about the safety of this country — the safety of Americans — you'll end this recklessness now.

Late Friday, the CFPB quietly gutted the protections I fought to put in place for families exploited by predatory contracts for deed.
Vought called it a “compliance burden” — I’d like to know how letting unscrupulous sellers exploit people just trying to buy their own home is a “compliance burden.”

Bernie Sanders' office has put out a report this morning on Trump's NIH cuts: "Trump officials effectively cut $2.7 billion in [NIH] funding in the first three months of 2025 – including a 31 percent cut to cancer research through March, compared to the same timeframe last year."
