BREAKING: Campaign Legal Center is suing Elon Musk and DOGE for unconstitutionally acting beyond their power to slash the federal budget, fire federal workers and threaten executive agencies. These actions are causing real harm to everyday Americans. We’re suing to stop it.

I was honored to speak with 150 passionate Pennsylvanians last weekend about their fight for an IRC and how they can apply the lessons from the @CampaignLegal report on redistricting commissions. Thank you @FairDistrictsPA for having me!

Thank you @SimoneLeeper for sharing info from the @CampaignLegal work on #redistricting commissions. PA needs a genuinely independent citizen redistricting commission for congressional & state legislative districts. campaignlegal.org/press-releases…

Many of the Virginia voters who have been kicked off the rolls are eligible citizens. These are eligible Virginians who deserve to have their voices heard. Here's a roundup of reporting about individual voters from Lynchburg, Roanoke, Henrico, and Woodbridge.

The Supreme Court allowing Virginia to engage in a last-minute purge that includes many known eligible citizens in the final days before an election is outrageous.

With voting underway across the country, it's critical for voters to understand they have the right to cast their ballots free from intimidation. Give the latest episode of #DemocracyDecoded a listen to learn about what qualifies as intimidation and the protections against it!
Campaign Legal Center@CampaignLegal

Voter intimidation is a federal crime. It can include blocking polling places, interrogating voters or even disinformation about voting. This week on #DemocracyDecoded, @KoppesCarly, @JMDiazJD and @CDas_bklyn weigh in on voter intimidation past and present link.chtbl.com/democracydecod…

Common Cause's Amy Keith: "It is utterly unreasonable for the governor to expect communities, who are still recovering from Hurricane Helene and desperately trying to prepare for Hurricane Milton and protect their families, to meet this purely administrative deadline."

Our state is still reeling from Helene and now with #HurricaneMilton on the way, Floridians will not have voter registration as their top priority today. Extending today's registration deadline would ensure voters can make the necessary preparations and still vote. #flapol
LWV of Florida@LWVFlorida

Floridians, still recovering from Hurricane Helene, are now preparing for Hurricane Milton. It is unreasonable to expect people to focus on registering to vote with storms wreaking havoc in Florida. ➡️ Press release: bit.ly/3ZQAjaR
