We appreciate that @fetterman.senate.gov opposes the SAVE Act. The SAVE Act would only make it harder for eligible voters to register to vote. It already failed once. Congress should reject it again.

Our community showed up loud and clearβ€”ICE endangers us all. Keep ICE out.

Mijente has launched a new petition calling on Univision and Telemundo to stop airing ICE and Department of Homeland Security anti-immigrant ads.

No Endangerment Finding = No climate rules.
Emissions rise.
Pollution spreads.
Health suffers.
The U.S. falls behind while polluters cash in. #SaveEPA

Repealing the Endangerment Finding guts EPA’s climate authority. It weakens air protections, harms public health, and leaves vulnerable communities exposed. This isn’t reform. It’s retreat. #SaveEPA #DefendScience

Live updates: At least 6 killed in West Virginia flooding as threat continues for Western Pa. and beyond At least six people were killed in the Wheeling, W.Va., area in flash flooding over the weekend, and much of southwestern Pennsylvania is under a flood watch through Monday night.

Our hearts go out to everyone in West Virginia affected by this deadly flooding, and hoping folks in Pennsylvania stay safe as rain continues there. Climate change is making flood like this more common β€” which is why we need to #actonclimate now. www.post-gazette.com/news/weather...

McClinton Gets Election Omnibus Bill Across House Finish Line Bill contains numerous election reforms but does not include voter ID

We should be making it easier to vote instead of erecting unnecessary barriers to the ballot box. This legislation is an important step towards delivering what the people want by allowing them to vote early the same way that they would on election day.

After hours of detainment, Newark Mayor Baraka has been released.

This arrest is shameful. @maketheroadnj.bsky.social has been at Delaney Hall demanding accountability since day one and we will continue to fight back against any attempts to make New Jersey a mass deportation zone.
