Right now, Congress is negotiating over the next #COVID19 stimulus package, and it must include funding for protecting the #2020Election. We can’t let the pandemic put our right to vote in November at risk. #ProtectTheVote brennancenter.org/our-work/polic…
State and local election officials tell us they need the funding now or else they won’t be ready to carry out a safe, fair, and secure #2020Election in pandemic conditions. #ProtectTheVote brennancenter.org/our-work/resea…
We recommend:
✔️expanding vote-by-mail options
✔️expanding online voter registration
✔️making in-person voting safe
Congress must fund these efforts immediately to protect every vote in #Election2020, especially in marginalized communities. #ProtectTheVote

1/ BREAKING: @RepTerriSewell has reintroduced the landmark John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. The bill would protect voters from racial discrimination at the ballot box by restoring and strengthening the protections of the Voting Rights Act.

2/ Since the Supreme Court decided Shelby County v. Holder 10 years ago — gutting the Voting Rights Act — states have passed almost 100 laws rolling back voting rights.

3/ What’s left of the Voting Rights Act is not enough to fight race discrimination in voting. In many states, the racial turnout gap between Black and white voters is the highest it has been since SCOTUS decided Shelby v. Holder. bit.ly/3Xk9Uim

1/ The latest Brennan Center poll of local election officials shows that we are on track for more than 1 in 5 local election officials to be serving in their first presidential election in 2024. brennancenter.org/our-work/resea…
2/ This loss of institutional knowledge can impact election administration and public confidence in elections.
3/ Election officials continue to face a hostile environment with insufficient resources. Our survey finds that 30% have been threatened, attacked, or harassed because of their job. 56% are worried about political leaders interfering with how they do their jobs.

"This is a nation that respects free and fair elections." In his speech tonight, @POTUS assailed the wave of attacks on Americans’ voting rights. Many of these threats were inspired by lies that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump. Here’s what we’ve been tracking: 🧵 1/10
In testimony to the @January6thCmte, Brennan Center’s @WendyRWeiser showed how the Big Lie gave rise to a wave of legislation to restrict the vote 2/10 brennancenter.org/our-work/resea…
In fact, our analysis reveals that the false claims of widespread voter fraud in the many Trump campaign lawsuits after the 2020 election became the foundations for the post-election wave of voter suppression legislation. 3/10

Former Twitter employee: “I was concerned the former president, for the first time, was speaking directly to extremist organizations and giving them directives.” #January6thCommitteeHearings
"If President Trump were any other user on Twitter, he would have been permanently suspended a very long time ago." #January6thCommitteeHearings
Former Twitter employee, knowing that extremists were ready to take up arms: "Trump posting this tweet on Dec 19th was essentially staking a flag in D.C. on Jan 6 for his supporters to come and rally." #January6thCommitteeHearing
