Common Cause

Watch our President and CEO, @KaseVirginia, on The Joy Reid Show discussing why Todd Blanche is the wrong choice for Attorney General. The AG's job is to protect the rule of law, NOT the president. Blanche has shown where his loyalties lie, and it's not with the American people.

A federal judge just confirmed what we said from the start: a president can't use the courts to enrich himself. Todd Blanche helped push this baseless scheme. That's exactly why he's unfit to be Attorney General. The Senate must #RejectBlanche.

NEW: President Trump just fired EVERY single member of the bipartisan federal agency that helps states run smooth elections. It's designed to cause chaos for voters in November. The playbook is simple: create chaos, then use it to cast doubt on the results.

The murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo marks the 10th fatal shooting by immigration officials during Trump's second term. Ten lives. Ten families forever changed. At Common Cause, we believe our government should be transparent and held accountable when lives are taken. #ICEOut

Drawing comparisons to Scandal’s Cyrus Beene, today’s Pop Congress cross examines Todd Blanche’s AG nomination, and how he has put loyalty to one person over loyalty to country. Read on Substack: open.substack.com/pub/ourcommonc…

Former DOJ employees don't think Blanche is fit to be AG. #BlockBlanche bit.ly/4wzluqm

We need an Attorney General who defends the people. Todd Blanche is only interested in protecting President Trump. More than 11,000 Common Cause members and Senator Tillis’ North Carolina constituents expect the senator to #BlockBlanche

When he wins, it's not rigged. When he loses, it's rigged.

Todd Blanche is an unqualified loyalist and any senator who confirms him is saying loyalty to Trump matters more than the rule of law. Speak out now >> act.commoncause.org/petitions/reje…

This Fourth of July, let's celebrate not only where we've been, but where we're going; a future where every voice is heard, every vote counts, and everyone has the freedom to participate. That's worth celebrating. Happy Fourth of July! 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙

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.

"Citizenship, then and now, was the right to have rights—to freely participate in our political community. The Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to 'every free-born person in this land.' We keep that promise today." -Chief Justice John Roberts

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.

Marsha P. Johnson's legacy reminds us that progress is never guaranteed, it takes courage, community, and action. As we close out Pride Month, we honor those who paved the way and recommit to building a democracy where everyone belongs. 🏳️‍🌈

🎉A victory for voters nationwide! SCOTUS ruled that ballots postmarked by Election Day can still be counted. This is an important win for protecting access to the ballot box, but voting rights still need defending. Join our Election Protection program bit.ly/4xVjGcs

🌈 This Pride Month, we honor Sylvia Rivera, a pioneering transgender activist who spent her life fighting for LGBTQ+ rights and uplifting those too often left behind. Her legacy reminds us that Pride is rooted in the ongoing fight for equality, dignity, and justice for all. 🏳️‍🌈

The first Pride was a riot. Stonewall happened 57 years ago. This #PrideMonth, we honor the LGBTQ+ trailblazers who fought back by continuing the fight for equality today — including defending trans rights from attacks across the country.

🌈 This Pride Month, we celebrate Audre Lorde, whose writing and activism remind us that democracy is strongest when every voice is heard. As she wrote: "Your silence will not protect you." May we continue to speak up—for each other and for our communities.

Just 11 years ago today, the Supreme Court ruled that the fundamental right to marry is guaranteed to same-sex couples by the 14th Amendment. We cannot rest until all LGBTQ+ people, including trans and nonbinary folks, have equal rights. #PrideMonth
