The same old Susan Collins charade. As soon as a controversial nominee or a bill has enough votes to pass, she announces she will vote no when it doesn’t matter. She never casts a deciding vote against Trump. Now she will claim this shows how she is so “independent.”

🚨BREAKING: In a win for voters, a court blocked a USCIS policy banning pro-voting groups from helping new citizens register to vote at naturalization ceremonies. These groups have helped people register at ceremonies for years, which helps address low voter turnout amongst naturalized citizens.
It’s unimaginable to be so desperate you feel the need to go on a hunger strike as your one avenue of autonomy and then get force fed.

BIG DEAL on voting rights this morning: Governor Spanberger just restored the voting rights of some 60,000+ Virginians. Her move reverses Youngkin's abrupt decision in 2023 to end automatic voting rights restoration, which brought Virginia back to a system of default lifetime disenfranchisement.

Boycott, Citizens@boycottcitizens.org · 5d agoThe anti-immigrant agenda runs on architects, engineers, tech companies, airlines, banks, and contractors as much as it runs on ICE agents. Seven times people shined a light on that hidden infrastructure, and slowed the machine:

1. When Oneida Nation leaders found out its subsidiary had signed ICE detention contracts from social media posts, they moved fast. Tribal Chairman Tehassi Hill said, it didn't "align with the nation's values, our culture and who we are as Haudenosaunee people." Contracts terminated, CEO replaced.
