The indictment of @splcenter.org did not happen because of the facts. It comes on the heels of the systematic dismantling of the Voting Rights Act & repeated efforts to make it harder for voters to vote, schools to teach history, health care to be affordable, and people to see an immigration judge.

Ogles’ Muslim‑ban bill + saying Muslims “don’t belong” = a Constitutional oath violated and communities targeted for hate. Muslim, South Asian, Arab & other communities deserve safety, not persecution. If we allow discrimination today, it spreads tomorrow.

Last night, President Trump shared a version of America that many Americans do not share. America may seem to be doing well because the wealthiest Americans are doing well. But the reality is that millions of Americans are facing the impossible decision of putting food on the table vs. paying rent.

Tonight, President Trump shared a version of America that many Americans do not share. So we simply ask: How strong is a union when it is more divided than ever? Is a country truly strong when the richest few gain, while the rest of its people struggle?
