The fake electors in Michigan attempted to rob voters of their right to decide the election for themselves.

This is a critical moment. What happened between Election Day 2020 & J6 was a conspiracy to overturn a free and fair election & keep Trump in power. It was carefully planned, then carried out, step by step, in multiple states.

Today, Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel charged 16 individuals who falsely claimed to be electors for Trump, despite his decisive loss. Accountability matters - no one is above the law.

The Moore v. Harper ruling, and rejection of the Independent State Legislature Theory comes at a critical time for our democracy. Our team States United Democracy Center served as pro-bono counsel to NC, in another fight to maintain our free, fair & secure elections.

No one is above the rule of law. We made that clear when we States United Democracy Center filed a Bar complaint against John Eastman in 2021. His attempts to undermine the 2020 election violated his oath & put our democracy at risk.

He must be held accountable.

Given all those across the country who are experiencing smoke from the fires in Canada, do people now understand why some environmental regulations must be national and international?

Congrats to the leadership of both parties in both houses of Congress for passing bipartisan legislation to avoid a financial disaster. Most especially kudos to the White House where the president chose not to fight over who gets credit, but kept both parties at the table.

Well done to President Biden and Kevin McCarthy for doing what used to be commonplace - negotiating and compromising. Now it's up to both of their parties to step up and finalize their agreement so the US doesn't cause a global economic meltdown.

The Supreme Court is rapidly becoming the most important branch of government in spite of Congress.

“Allowing extreme partisan gerrymandering to go unchecked would suggest to legislatures across the country that they have permission to ignore their voters & take more power for themselves.”—@GOVCTW

UT voters deserve fair maps. We need to ensure every vote & every voter counts.
