The Republicans can no longer win on ideas so they plan to retain power through partisan gerrymandering, voter suppression & fear leaving us with an oligarchy of white, patriarchal, minority rule forever.
We can not allow it.

1/Republicans Can win without winning.
2/ Republican Power 4Eva
3/ Knowing the Republicans can win without winning, what do we do?
5/ Securing voter rights in America is simply worth the risk of eliminating the filibuster. Democracy won’t get another shot if we miss this one.
6/ The Republicans have showed their hand. If you’re pro-democracy passing the For the People Act should be an absolute no-brainer.
7/ The Senate is broken. Eliminating the filibuster would allow democracy to work the way it was designed, namely majority rule not, minority veto.
8/ Eliminating the Filibuster would make senators accountable to their voters rather than their party. That’s just good for democracy.
9/ Eliminating the Filibuster unblocks democracy and that’s good for everybody.
10/ The fact that McConnell is freaking out about the Democrats potentially eliminating the Filibuster tells us everything we need to know.
