Every single American needs to hear this, particularly women!
If the Save Act passes, most married women will be required to show US Passports in order to vote!
That will mean people who cannot afford one won't be able vote & Republicans like Rep Walberg don't want us to & he's on tape saying so!

Curious as to what the GOP in Michigan thinks about the cost to women and others whose names don’t match their birth certificate? Listen to Congressman Tim Walberg answer a direct question about the SAVE act.
Call your congressman today to share your outrage. And shame on Tim Walberg.

On point segment but what they missed here is that Trump didn’t just win by making some young men feel heard—he won by making them angry. He convinced them that women, Black people, and others were stealing what was rightfully theirs.
Take 3 minutes for this one…

The report says the attack “was so systematic and coordinated that it transcended mere mob violence”

It's time to call out the GOP for what they are: a party that prioritizes power over people.
The SAVE Act is just the latest example of their attempts to silence our voices and maintain their grip on power.

As Los Angeles burned, Latino immigrants rushed in to put out fires
Many Latino immigrants in Los Angeles worked to extinguish some of the fires with hoses. They aren't firefighters, they were just helping people in other neighborhoods.

WHOA! THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FRAUD.
GOP Rep. Kay Granger (TX-12) has been missing for six months. She was just found by a reporter in a dementia care facility.
Her staff and others have been keeping this a secret from her constituents. So who’s been making these posts?

Kay Granger, a still sitting Republican Congresswoman, has been missing votes in DC because she's been living in a nursing home for the past six months, and none of her colleagues said a damn thing.
But they were out there saying Biden was “mentally unfit.”
Are you f’ng kidding me?
