Breaking: Scott Walker signs lame duck GOP legislative coup stripping his Democratic successor of power & making it harder to vote. This is the kind of thing autocrats do

A very dark day for democracy in Wisconsin
Scott Walker just signed lame duck coup brazenly stripping power from Dem gov/AG & making it harder to vote

Similar legislative coups underway in MI & NC

GOP shamelessly gutting democracy before they lose power

motherjones.com/politics/2018/…
Gutting unions

Lame duck coups

Extreme gerrymandering

Rampant voter suppression

Eviscerating campaign finance

This is Scott Walker's legacy in Wisconsin

RIP to 97-year-old civil rights activist Rosanell Eaton who passed away yesterday

She passed literacy test to register to vote & then registered over 4,000 people. She was plaintiff in @ncnaacp lawsuit challenging NC voter ID law

A remarkable woman I was honored to know
Rosanell Eaton had to pass literacy test in 1940s to register to vote under Jim Crow

Then when NC passed voter ID law she had to make 11 trips to different state agencies to get right ID

NC just passed new version of voter ID law in lame duck session thenation.com/article/the-92…
As I wrote in my book Give Us the Ballot, civil rights hero Rosanell Eaton had to recite Preamble to Constitution to register to vote under Jim Crow

70 years later she was still fighting for voting rights in North Carolina & joined @RevDrBarber's Moral Monday movement

Breaking: North Carolina GOP passes voter ID law in lame duck session before they lose supermajority & Dem gov can veto

Law targets voter impersonation, which is practically non-existent, while doing little to stop massive election fraud committed by GOP in NC09
Last time NC GOP passed voter ID law court said it targeted black voters "with almost surgical precision"

motherjones.com/politics/2018/…
This is very important

NC's last voter ID law exempted mail-in ballots, where massive election fraud in NC9 committed, while targeting voter impersonation, which is basically non-existent

That's b/c Dems vote more in person while GOP votes more absentee
