And if you can afford to get a passport, do that. Start now because it can take months. If you can afford it, there are places that can expedite it for you, but it still takes longer than you might expect, especially because they keep reducing the departments that deal with things..
If you use your married name on official ID, i.e. Driver's License or passport, start now to obtain official documents of your marriage, divorce, name change for any reason from your state. You may need to take them with you in order to vote
Think proving citizenship is simple?

Ask any of the 21M+ married women if her birth name does not match her current name.

No match. No vote. This is voter supression.

Trump nominated a legit white nationalist to a top post at the State Department. I asked him some basic questions about his belief in the “erasure of white culture”. Watch this embarrassing, fumbling answer. Like he has never before been asked to explain his views.

The SAVE Act would require Americans to show a passport or birth certificate in person just to register to vote.

Millions of Americans don’t have access to these documents. This is voter suppression, plain and simple.

The court order we won to release over $200 million in funding for the Gateway Program’s Hudson Tunnel project is now in effect.

The Trump administration never had the authority to freeze these funds, and now they must be delivered swiftly to keep this critical project moving.

The SAVE Act is meant to make voting harder and more intimidating so people don't do it. When you combine it with ICE agents potentially being deployed at the polls, it's clear what Trump is trying to do before the midterms - make it harder to vote.

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

CNN confirms what MSNBC reported live a few hours ago: DOJ is surveilling Dem lawmakers when they go to the DOJ to search unredacted Epstein files.
CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"

Pam Bondi has been a complete and total failure at her job. The Epstein survivors showed more courage just by being in that room than she did under oath. She refused to answer questions and chose complicity.

wow -- Bondi throws a fit in response to Nadler's question about how many of Epstein's co-conspirators, if any, she's investigating, aggressively pointing at him and yelling. The hearing then devolves into chaos and Raskin and Bondi start yelling at each other.

Days later, the DOJ told the plaintiffs’ attorneys that “they are still searching for those hard drives at Broadview.”
