🚨BREAKING: Armed suspected ICE agents are now grabbing young women outside college fraternities… Yesterday, a young woman was surrounded by armed men and taken, outside a fraternity house, at the University of Washington… And we need to stop pretending this is normal. Armed men grabbing a woman in public, and refusing to identify themselves, is exactly what we teach women to fear… and now the government is normalizing that, and calling it “law enforcement.” And this doesn’t just affect one person… it lowers the safety of every woman, on every campus. Because now, there’s no clear line between law enforcement and a predator. If unidentified men can take a woman from a dorm, a campus, a fraternity… then any man can pretend to be ICE and do the same thing, and that confusion is exactly what predators rely on. But, it gets worse… ICE has a pattern of detaining people they shouldn’t, then releasing them without belongings, without support, sometimes far from where they were taken… Now, apply that to a college student… away from family, in an unfamiliar place, suddenly without a phone, ID, or any way to get home. ICE agents are illegally taking whoever they can… and every time people excuse it, the line moves further. Because the second a country normalizes masked armed men grabbing any women in public, especially college students, and refusing to identify themselves… That’s not only NOT public safety… it’s actively putting every woman at risk.

The SAVE America Act could make millions of married women pay $165 for a passport just to vote. Charging people to vote has a name: poll tax. Email your Senators now and tell them to vote NO on the SAVE America Act. The vote is this week. secure.now.org/a/save-america…

At NOW #DEI is a core value, not a trend. Abandoning it harms workers and consumers, and weakens our democracy. That is why we’ve joined @colorofchange to call on corporations, regulators, and policymakers to stand firm. of millions of people.

Companies should not abandon their DEI commitments because of regulatory threats, merger politics, and political intimidation. In Sunday’s issue of the @nytimes, the coalition published an open-letter calling on corporations across the country to make the right choice.

@nationalnow Identity significantly increases risk.  More than half of LGBTQ+ women (55%) say they’ve experienced online harassment — double the rate of the overall sample (27%). (5/6)

@nationalnow The burden isn’t shared equally.  Nearly 1 in 3 women of color (32%) reported experiencing online abuse—compared to 24% of White women. (4/6)

@nationalnow Online harassment is rising. The percentage of women who reported experiencing online harassment increased from 24% to 27% year over year. (3/6)

Incogni’s annual survey on online harassment affecting women, conducted with @nationalnow (National Organization for Women), is out!  Findings reveal how race, sexual orientation, and vocation affect online abuse.   Full research in the comments below.  Highlights 👇(1/6)
