Republicans are liars.

Noncitizens aren’t voting.

Who WOULD be blocked from voting if the SAVE Act is passed? Women, people of color, low-income communities, the elderly, and people living in rural communities.

Under DHS’ use-of-force policy, moves that cut off a person's breathing “must not be used as a means to control non-compliant subjects or persons resisting arrest.”

💯 this is not sustainable. Any Senate Dem voting to fund and sustain this violence against the American people is complicit. Period.
Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

On January 6, 2021, Donald Trump incited a violent insurrection.

Five years later, his authoritarian regime continues with military deployed in U.S. cities, a disregard for the rule of law, and the unauthorized capture of a foreign leader.

This is what happens when tyranny goes unchecked.
