    the thing about voter suppression laws is that each additional layer of bureaucracy and procedure is an opportunity for someone to act in a discriminatory mannerhttps://twitter.com/KatCalvinLA/status/1113181564815339520 …

    I. AM. LIVID. One of our amazing field staffers took 18(!!) people to get IDs today in downtown Memphis and the woman in charge of the DMV KICKED HER OUT! As soon as she heard what we were doing she decided we couldn't get IDs there anymore. She has BANNED US FROM THE DMV. pic.twitter.com/4o9bO8ppXM

        oh, to get a voter ID you must drive to the ID center two counties over where the clerk may decide to reject your application for arbitrary reasons you can’t contest

        With the added bonus of “plausible deniability” of course: “I’M not suppressing your vote. We ONLY do IDs here!”

        It’s petty tyranny. Just look at Kim Davis. She was praised by Republicans for refusing to do her job and follow the law.

        Attorneys well versed in voting rights laws need to be included on these kinds of field trips. Hope you return with a TV camera crew in tow.

        Remember when Republicans used to say government should be smaller and efficient? Not anymore, especially when it comes to screwing over black/poor people. Read this book and tell your friends. You should know the author. #wiunion #Resistpic.twitter.com/W3ZZH2WRwU
