BREAKING: The House passed the so-called SAVE America Act which threatens to upend our freedom to vote.

The bill could disenfranchise millions of eligible voters by requiring documents like passports or birth certificates to register to vote and forcing voter roll purges. The Senate must reject it.

Our founders, though deeply flawed, understood that democracy requires an informed citizenry and a government accountable to it people. That’s why the press is the only profession protected by the Constitution. It’s also why autocrats and oligarchs seek to control and destroy it.

Universities are moving rapidly to comply with laws that don't exist.

A hand-painted sign reads, “No Kings USA. October 18.” The letters USA are filled in with an American flag. There is also an image of the back, right side of the Statue of Liberty holding a wildly flaming torch. The text and image is on a blue background.

No Kings 2 is coming to Atlanta on October 18!

Our understanding in Atlanta is that the Emory professor was tenured & the reporting is that she has been terminated. AAUP principles require a hearing but, regardless, it seems like it'd be useful to understand how they are justifying this.

What do we know about the argument/s being used to override tenure protections?
