That statement is demonstrably false. When government officials deny documented reality, they erode public trust and undermine accountability. LWV believes in transparency, facts, and the constitutional rights of ALL Americans.

US citizens deserve the truth — and they deserve better.
Kristi Noem: “There's no American citizens that have been arrested or detained. We focus on those that are here illegally. And anything that you would hear or report that would be different than that is simply not true and false reporting.”

Did you know? Women gained the right to vote in 1920. On the 105th anniversary of its founding, the League called on Congress to protect the rule of law & defend the Constitution. The letter was signed by the leadership of every state League. Read it: my.lwv.org/sites/defaul... @lwvus.bsky.social

We’re live at SCOTUS rallying for fair maps as the court hears oral arguments in Louisiana v. Callais!
All of this while often living in high cost of living areas due to the service member’s orders.

We have until October 13 to demand that Congress takes action to ensure service members get paid October 15.

1 in 4 military families are already experiencing food insecurity. Many military families rely on their service member’s income solely due to the challenges military spouses have finding employment and reliable childcare with each of their frequent moves.

Our military service members are not getting paid.

Unlike during previous government shutdowns, Congress did not put forth a bill to ensure that the men and women who are serving around the world during this shutdown will be able to also take care of their families who are waiting at home.

“This album isn’t really about what happened onstage … it’s about what I was going through offstage.”
The League has consistently and boldly spoken up in the face of rising authoritarianism.

This is an opportunity to put words into action and show up in defense of democracy and as an effective ally.
