.@PLSEPHILLY provides legal advice and representation to low-income residents across Pennsylvania who have yet to fully access their second chance. Uplifting communities affected by social justice inequities, they restore opportunity to individuals with criminal records.

With the help of our partnership, @VoteRiders will be able to place an organizer on the ground in Arizona to combat voter disenfranchisement and ensure that all eligible voters have access to the ballot. Their work strengthens our democracy — and they are worth your time. https://t.co/iYglzqgo2B

One year ago today, the #AmericanRescuePlan was signed into law. But our work isn’t done. Now, we must ensure that the American Dream is possible for everyone, everywhere. https://t.co/UUptAu9fBL

Democrats everywhere ought to pay attention to both DeJear’s warning and her campaign. She is challenging a Republican governor who says one thing and does another — and she’s doing it as an independent-minded, determined small businesswoman who listens and delivers. https://t.co/bgGcDl2kEj

.@POTUS clearly understands that America needs an internet we can trust. His #SOTU call to action will mobilize the political will we need to protect children and families — and democracy itself — from the damage of unchecked tech platforms. Now it’s time for Congress to step up.

A major #FutureofTech recommendation: a comprehensive federal privacy law. Misinformation is amplified through algorithms and the unrestricted collection of personal data. This isn't about free speech — it’s about limitless reach. More from @JimSteyer, Margaret Spellings and me: https://t.co/PwZ9JBFuQK https://t.co/LzSrOkTZKM

Any way you look at it, the efforts to frustrate, confuse and inconvenience people who want to vote add up to one thing: Republicans don’t believe they'd win a fair fight. The stakes are high — @American_Bridge won’t back down, and neither should you. https://t.co/NhRSNTlAwf
