    The 2020 election and its aftermath have made it more clear than ever that we cannot take our democracy for granted. The newly introduced For the People Act marks a major step forward in achieving a democracy that works for all of us.

    The Koch family is worth $113 billion, becoming $22.6 billion richer over the past 7 months. They could literally end child hunger and homelessness in America and still be billionaires. Instead they're trying to evict millions of poor people from their homes. How obscene is that?

    NEW at : The New Civil Liberties Alliance, a right-wing legal group heavily funded by Charles Koch, successfully pushed the Trump administration to allow landlords to begin evictions proceedings now, before the federal eviction moratorium ends

    Make no mistake about it. This is a blatant attempt by Trump's handpicked Postmaster General (and campaign contributor) to sabotage the Postal Service, suppress the vote and undermine democracy. The Postmaster General should either resign or be removed from office — immediately.

    The Postal Service has informed states that they’ll need to pay first-class 55-cent postage to mail ballots to voters, rather than the normal 20-cent bulk rate. That nearly triples the per-ballot cost.

    📽️ NEW VIDEO The President knows the threat. He knows what to do to prevent that threat. And yet he decides to do the exact opposite. He is knowingly gambling with our lives.

    "The Threat"
    The President has made it clear. He doesn't like testing. He thinks we'd have fewer cases without testing. That's why we have less than 5% of the worlds population, but over 25% of the worlds deaths.
