The Constitution doesn’t say “We the People… unless the President or the Court says otherwise.”
Yet that’s exactly what’s happening.
We can’t wait for permission to defend it.
We must STAY LOUD.

Update: DOJ haw now sued 18 states.
My law firm has already filed to intervene to defend voters in 13 of the first 14 cases. We are working on the remains 5.
This is an insane effort by DOJ and we are a small firm. But we are committed to protecting free and fair elections in 2026.
More soon.

DOJ has sued Maine, Oregon, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont for access to its most sensitive voter data.
My firm has moved to intervene in 10 of those cases. We are working on the last 4.
