I am completely disgusted with this GOP regime...They don't want anyone who isn't voting for them to have any rights, especially voting rights! They like to try to make it sound nice by calling it the SAVE Act... I'm pretty sure that is short for....'Supressing American Voter Equality'!!!!!!!

Sooo true. They are really good at using language to their advantage. We MUST do the same. Why aren’t we calling it the SAVE AUTOCRACY ACT? That’s what it is.

Dealing with the GOP regime is like playing a game with a younger sibling, and so when they lose, they get mad, throw a tantrum, and change the rules of the game so they’re more likely to win the next round. If that doesn’t work, they keep moving the goal post again and again until they finally win on some basis that no longer even resembles the original game that was being played. Like sure, you won lil bro, but you won a mish-mash of a game that is no longer coherent or makes any sense.

If this does pass there needs to be a major fundraiser and women voter committee in each state that can finance and walk disinfranchised women through the new requirements process to ensure that every vote will truly count.

If we could do that, we can stop HR 22. Stopping this threat will be far easier than an undo afterwards.

With everything going on most likely 😕…. I am blown away from the disconnect most everyone around me has with what's really happening within our government right now. From Ohio, but living in West Virginia 😵‍💫

Do you think it’s be cuz they’re trumpers so they just disengage thinking he’s got it covered? Or just willfully ignorant or ? Hey I have fam in Ohio - Loveland. And I went to college in Ohio. I’m from Pa, live in SoCal now. Where about in Ohio?

Just saw idiot Trump has some emergency order saying 60% of our National Forests are to be logged. Another fake emergency to grab power and destroy our lands. 🤬🤬🤬🤬 I’m beside myself right now.

I think it's a little bit of everything but mainly Trump/MAGA, I'm from Southern Ohio/ TriState area and work in a rehab hospital in WV and almost every room usually has FOX News on🤮... I don't know if that and the disconnect will change if Medicare/Medicaid does get cut because that's a huge portion of our patients that will be affected.

Good lord, those poor people are being brainwashed all day long. Try to change the channel to something FUN. That’s insane. I’m sorry. It’s amazing how much better their thinking will be if they just disconnected from the propaganda. Yeh well when their healthcare gets cut, hopefully they’ll get it. If you ever want advice on how to talk to maga fam/friends check out “Rich Logis Leaving MAGA”. He has Substack and on MTN on YouTube. Really good. He spoke at DNC for Harris. :)

Keep being loud! 

Use this spreadsheet to call/email/write any of our representatives as often as possible. Not just your own state reps, reach out to those in other states. Be as loud as you can and share this. Use your voice and make some “good trouble.”

It’s time to call this out for what it is. Today’s GOP has now gone all in on replacing democracy with #RepubloFascism. USE THAT HASHTAG EVERYWHERE. We need that specific branding to stick to them like sludge, dark and repulsive.

By knowingly voting to disenfranchise millions of women across the nation, they are now complicit in the Christian Nationalist vision and each must be an #FTR #FinalTermRepublican.

It’s so frustrating hearing from them! I hope people keep calling and emailing to make them exhausted from all the attention!

I called Josh Harder’s office today and he is definitely voting NO! (my Rep. thankfully is Jared Huffman, who is wonderfully progressive and definitely voting no on the Save Act).

Between this proposed legislation and this unconstitutional nightmare I'm struggling to breathe properly. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/white-house-confirms-trump-is-exploring-ways-to-deport-us-citizens_n_67f580abe4b0a5ea5c7608d2

I worked hard to get April MD elected (next district over from mine) and am appalled and working hard to get folks to reach out to her.

Of course they do. It’s the only way for them to cling to power.

The vote tabulators are compromised. The precinct level state results of the 2024 federal election clearly show manipulation (Election Truth Alliance). We should not conduct any more elections with most of the existing systems. If we won’t fix this before the next election then every candidate must call for recounts to expose this. And to subject at hand: yes, facilitating every citizen voting.

If we get behind this Act … which most Americans already agree with … it will help make us more and more indivisible. Make the AIDA Act … visable.
