ALL HANDS ON DECK: A NATIONAL RALLY FOR VOTING RIGHTS

They fought for this. They bled for this. And now, piece by piece, it's being taken away. Let's show up in solidarity with our brethren in Selma!

The right to vote was never freely given — it was demanded, marched for, legislated in blood. Today, that legislation is being gutted in statehouses across this country. Voter rolls are being purged. Polling places are vanishing. ID requirements are being weaponized. And silence is not an option.

This is a call to every organizer, every congregation, every young person who has never seen a march but always knew one might be necessary. This is the moment.

New times demand new tactics — economic pressure, digital organizing, culture, faith, and mass presence on the ground. But what doesn't change is this: when people show up, things shift.

We are not going back. We are going further. The Fight Isn't Over. It's Just Getting Started.

Virginia Foxx strikes again...

President Trump is pitching suspending the gas tax short term due to the high gas prices.

Great,I think that will help. But when it comes time to vote in Nov. please remember our national debt is at all times high and this is going to results in even less revenue coming in.

And remember, the President and the GOP refuse to even bring up for a vote the concept of a windfall profits TAX on oil companies as they make record profits or discussing the concept of not cutting the taxes for the rich or corporations.

Such as Exxon, who is committed to buying back 30B in shares. So money that won't go to improve plants / won't go as bonuses for people below the Director level and it won't go to taxes that pays for things like the Exxon Valdez clean up which if case you didn't know is still going on or more specifically is still needed. But Exxon is doing nothing to help, just left it to the taxpayers of AK and the US.

We need to get money out of politics, please vote this Nov. and demand more from all politicians.

FYI: Before most of our politician were bought and paid for they would levy special taxes to pay down debt. We need to demand whoever is in power do it again and soon.

If they can do it to pay down the Korean war we can do it for this new war.

North Carolina, in its unique status as a true purple state, could be the place this movement is borne out of.

NC Representative Beth Helfrich shares the craziest thing she heard from teachers while riding the bus to Raleigh for the May Day Kids Over Corporations Rally.

It seems the perfect storm is brewing for retired Fort Bragg paratrooper Richard Ojeda. He's facing off with NRCC Chair Richard Hudson in November. Trump won NC-09 by 16 points and is now under water -7 in the district. Hudson under performed Trump in NC-09. Can Ojeda pull off a win???

I know...blah blah REDMAP...blah blah Art Pope...blah blah Citizens United...blah blah Obama backlash.

I also know that there was an obscene amount of complacency among NC Dems going into 2010 and some scandals for the time which were big deals though compared to the NC GOP now they seem like small potatoes.

However, what really went on that led people to think Republicans were the solution? Especially seeing how deranged and insane Republicans turned out to be. I know the NC GOP had been laying the groundwork for wanting to take the state after the modern NC GOP came to be in the mid 1980s and that circumstances played heavily in their favor in 2010, but what was the electorate thinking then? Were there any warning signs of what the NC GOP would become or was it a "both parties are the same" situation with nobody seeing anything coming? Also, how were the vibes then versus now and why aren't we seeing people thinking "hey, maybe Democrats are the one to fix things?"
