    We have a rich history of voter suppression. The mistake is to think that it's something of the past. Modern-day voting discrimination – like voter purging, poll closures & strict voter ID – prevent too many eligible voters from casting a ballot. We must #RestoreTheVOTE. #VRA54pic.twitter.com/tO9piBgqni

        History is important. It’s our history that shows us how crises have reached this point. #MissionKimPossible @KimWilliamsCA16 is on a mission to beat blue dog @RepJimCosta!

        We must address how policy and political actors have crafted the crazy outcomes we see today.

        As soon as SCOTUS knocked those protections down from Civil Rights Act the states that had required review all began passing laws targeted at suppressing black voters. In addition, states like GA have deliberately made polling stations harder for them to reach on election day.

        People also don't vote because they know the ballots are not all counted. Ballots were destroyed in 2016 because the @DNC didn't care who the public wanted. Flawed process by corrupt officials.

        (1) Voter purging NEEDS to happen. Too many DEAD folk on the voter rolls. (2) Voter ID needs to happen. Too many unqualified people are registered. #NOillegalsvoting. (3) Voting hours should be 6am-9pm.
