The ramifications of the failed decades-long war on drugs means that there can be no true reform without investment into the communities that have been harmed. https://t.co/n33FkMt3Qw — PolitiTweet.org

Adopting a National Popular Vote will help begin to: ✔️ Dismantle the racial, ethnic, and geographic disparities in voting power ✔️ Further core principles of democracy ✔️ Give all of us equal power in presidential elections — PolitiTweet.org

Instead of voters in a few swing states deciding the outcome, candidates will need to speak to — and listen to — ALL citizens throughout the country equally. — PolitiTweet.org

Is your state on this list? — PolitiTweet.org

So far, the NPVIC has been passed in: CA DC HI IL MA MD NJ NY RI VT WA CT CO DE NM OR These 15 states and DC have 196 of the 270 electoral votes needed for the compact to be effective. https://t.co/h9xMJ3w5Jd — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

But this compact only becomes viable after states with electoral votes totaling at least 270 have passed the legislation — giving them the power to put the popular vote winner in the White House. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

But another option is the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact. The NPVIC is an agreement between US states and DC to award all their electoral votes to whoever wins the overall popular vote in a presidential election — regardless of their own majority. — PolitiTweet.org

We need one person, one vote. So how do we get there? The ideal solution is a constitutional amendment to provide for the election of the President and Vice-President of the United States by direct popular vote. — PolitiTweet.org

ACLU @ACLU

There are many problems with the Electoral College. But the most fundamental is that it thwarts the basic principle of one person, one vote by awarding each state a number of electoral votes equal to its allocation of representatives plus its two senators. https://t.co/L8RDp4LzIS — PolitiTweet.org

Today, members of the Electoral College will cast their ballots for the president. We’ve opposed the Electoral College since 1969. — PolitiTweet.org

VICTORY: The Supreme Court just rejected Kansas’ attempt to overturn a major voting rights win. In April, we defeated Kris Kobach’s law that illegally required voters to show documents proving their citizenship to register to vote. Today, that win was upheld. — PolitiTweet.org

Edward Snowden blew the whistle on illegal government activity kept secret for years. Our democracy is better off because of him. https://t.co/cG4vp4m1vD — PolitiTweet.org

Schools criminalize, traumatize, and fail students with disabilities far too often. It's time to start prioritizing disability rights. https://t.co/BNmooyNQq7 — PolitiTweet.org

In our nation's border communities, CBP: ⚠️ Questions us at checkpoints ⚠️ Gathers our information with surveillance cameras and drones ⚠️ Flies helicopters overhead ⚠️ Roams our neighborhoods ⚠️ Racially profiles us This has got to change. https://t.co/qr6wblfsfn — PolitiTweet.org

81 percent of people in ICE detention are held in facilities owned or operated by for-profit providers. It's impossible to extract the profit motive from our country's detention machine. https://t.co/big9iosgTb — PolitiTweet.org

In the last four years, the Trump administration has explicitly targeted communities of color with harmful executive actions. The Biden-Harris administration must take meaningful steps to further advance racial justice in the US. https://t.co/Pc3BLW1mIv — PolitiTweet.org
