Our polling places are run by our neighbors. Election workers who worship with us, watch Friday Night football with us, and volunteer with us in our communities. This threat from Republicans is just pure voter intimidation of folks in our communities who are already worried.

Republicans have wanted to kill off Affordable Care since its beginning. From sabotaging initial negotiations to repeatedly watering down protections, Trump and the Republicans have consistenly hamstringed the ACA. And now are trying to tell us it never worked. Peak gaslighting.

When your Republican Congressperson says they support veterans, remind them of the facts: our veterans are not receiving the care they've earned because the GOP has cut every program veterans need. The GOP has broken the promise our country made to those who signed up to serve.

Shocking decision. From Sotomayor: "When the Executive publicly announces its intent to break the law . . . it is the Judiciary’s duty to check that lawlessness." We'll add: "When GOP Reps refuse to protect Congressionally approved funds, it's our duty to check them" www.nbcnews.com/politics/sup...

To be clear: this is Congressionally appropriated funding that the Executive Branch is legally bound to administer. But the four feckless GOP Minnesota Reps are not willing to stand up to POTUS and do their actual jobs. kstp.com/.../millions... #EducationFunding #DoYourJob #republicanbetrayal

Lost jobs and devastating farm impacts. More expensive groceries. Empty ports and soon-to-be empty shelves. Retirement savings gone. In just 100 days the Republican wrecking ball has destroyed our economy and put millions of families at risk. And none of this was necessary.

This is a coordinated Republican effort to hurt families. And let's be honest, they know it will push women out of the workforce because once long-term care homes are closed, someone will need to stay home to care for those who've lost their services.

Not a mandate. Not a landslide. In fact, of all eligible voters, Trump barely got 1/3 of all votes. It doesn't change the outcome but it gives perspective in rural areas where we feel like we're a blue dot in a sea of red. (Numbers may change slightly as results are not completely available yet.)
