There’s a lot of noise about so-called election “emergencies.” But the Constitution is clear: presidents can’t delay or stop federal elections. Here’s why threats to use emergency powers against voting are more political theater than legal reality. 🔗 bit.ly/4g0JYlm

The 50-49 confirmation vote is disappointing, but it isn't the final word. The country deserves an Attorney General who serves the people, not just the president. Common Cause will ensure Todd Blanche is accountable to us.

No one should get special treatment under the law just because they’re wealthy or powerful. But a sweeping immunity deal for President Trump raises serious concerns about accountability, transparency, and equal justice. Here are 5 things you should know 🧵⬇️

#OTD in 1965, the Voting Rights Act was signed into law, opening the doors of democracy to millions of eligible voters. Its promise is simple: every eligible voter deserves to cast a ballot and have it counted free from discrimination, intimidation, or violence.

The Attorney General should serve the interests of the people. Sen. John Cornyn said it himself. Now it's time to live up to those words. Common Cause is on the ground in Texas urging him to #BlockBlanche. Americans deserve an independent DOJ—not Todd Blanche.

Yesterday SCOTUS just handed the wealthy a bigger megaphone in our elections. This is an open invitation for big money to dominate our democracy. Congress must set new limits on political spending and restore the firewall between parties and candidates.

A victory for all Americans, SCOTUS struck down a presidential executive order that would have changed the 14th Amendment’s birthright citizenship definition. Today may be a brief win, but our fight to protect our multiracial democracy continues.
