📬Are you a voter whose state allows grace periods for late-arriving ballots postmarked by Election Day?

If so, your vote could be at risk. All due to a new USPS rule that could delay postmarking of mail-in ballots. @jimsaksa.com breaks down what you need to know👇 https://bit.ly/3M1JVuN

BREAKING: Federal agents just shot and killed a man in Minneapolis after brutally beating him in front of witnesses.

We condemn this killing and demand ICE and CBP agents withdraw from Minneapolis immediately.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

NEW: We sent a letter to the Ohio Secretary of State informing him that the state's new law mandating secretive voter purges violates the National Voter Registration Act.

This law will cause qualified voters in Ohio to lose their right to vote with little time for recourse.

Republicans only care about “following the rules” when they can weaponize them. But the second it cuts both ways, they go mute.

Pam Bondi and the DOJ have failed to comply with the subpoena and discharge petition — and y’all have nothing but excuses for them.

At just 15, she refused to give up her seat on a segregated bus, serving as a catalyst for the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the end of segregation.
