Ukraine peace talks are now tied to a multibillion-dollar Russian oil deal benefiting allies of Trump negotiators Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff. This arrangement undermines Western sanctions leverage, rewarding the Kremlin with economic relief before it makes any territorial concessions.

30 days to #TheMidterms If you think that voting by mail is your only option because you are disabled or elderly, there is another option ⬇️
IF YOU VOTE BY MAIL BECAUSE YOU ARE DISABLED OR ELDERLY:

CURBSIDE VOTING HERE
VOTE

DID YOU KNOW 27 States and DC require your polling place to let you vote curbside in your car if you have handicapped tags.

CONSIDER VOTING EARLY IN PERSON
THIS TIME.

State explicitly allows curbside voting for voters with disabilities (27 states + D.C.)
State has no applicable law regarding curbside voting
(23 states)
VOTING EARLY IN PERSON IS THE SAFEST OPTION
— especially if you're concerned about mail delays or other problems.
