Your right to vote shouldn’t depend on a flawed database. Trump is making it harder to vote, putting eligible voters at risk of being challenged by bad data. That is voter suppression. We can’t let bureaucracies like databases become weapons against our right to vote.

President Donald Trump wants to let states use a federal database that includes voters’ personal information to check for noncitizens on voter rolls.

ICE detained the father of an active-duty Navy sailor while his son was deployed at sea. Imagine serving our country while the Trump administration takes your dad. This is what “America First” looks like under Trump.

In 2024, Republicans promised to lower gas prices and put America first. Two years later, Californians are paying $5.58 a gallon. Trump and Republicans broke those promises, dragged Americans into war, and made life more expensive.
