Investigate Trump's $5,000 "Dividend" Promise as Illegal Vote Buying

The $5,000 "Trump dividend" pledge made at the Republican convention in Dallas is textbook vote buying, and I want to know what you're doing about it. Federal law under 18 U.S.C. § 597 makes it illegal to pay or promise payment to influence voting. Trump's offer — cash to every American adult, conti

Ban Forced Arbitration

Protect Mail-In Voting Rights Against Trump's Unconstitutional Executive Order

Take action now to protect mail-in voting before the midterms. Trump's executive order to restrict absentee ballots is an unconstitutional power grab — and the Supreme Court's decision to pause the lower court ruling blocking it has injected, in Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson's own words, "chaos and

Speak Out Against Partisan Vote-by-Mail Restrictions

Call this what it is: voter suppression. The claim that restricting mail voting will ensure "the right ballots are going to the right people" is a chilling statement, and your silence on it is not an option. Speak out loudly and publicly against any policy that selectively limits mail voting based o
