When corporations like @Toyota say "We do not believe it is appropriate to judge members of Congress solely based on their votes on the electoral certification," what they're really saying is "We care about our profits more than we care about democracy."
END THE FILIBUSTER, NOW!
Our Democracy is in peril, and today, every single Senate Republican voted against saving it. Democrats will not be deterred in our fight for the For The People Act. Our Republic is at a crossroads, and it is up to us to save it. Read my statement here:

Every single Senate Republican voted against even starting debate on critical voting rights legislation.
Senate Republicans again signed their names alongside Trump, the Big Lie, voter suppression.
Make no mistake: The fight in the Senate to protect voting rights is not over.

CALL YOUR CONGRESSPERSON !! The Systemic Equality Oath is an important commitment in a moment where #CriticalRaceTheory is being undermined by many legislators.
H.R.40 has been gaining more urgency recently as a path to restorative justice.
If you agree with us that the time for Congress to take up the serious study of reparations, tell your representatives to support H.R. 40 now.

It’s Juneteenth AND reparations.
It’s Juneteenth AND end police violence + the War on Drugs.
It’s Juneteenth AND end housing + education apartheid.
It’s Juneteenth AND teach the truth about white supremacy in our country.
Black liberation in its totality must be prioritized.
Unions are a formidable force and they’re just getting started! Read about other exciting efforts, here: grabyourwallet.org/news/are-…
MSNBC’s employees plan to form a union. It’s the latest example of a workers’ rights movement that has swept major media organizations, as journalists seek to unionize amid a precarious outlook for their industry. nyti.ms/2S971DU

It’s unusual for #McConnell to hold two news conferences in one week in Washington.
This suggests he’s sees Manchin’s movement on the #votingrights bill as a real threat. Ahead of his newser, he argues it will “supercharge the cancel culture.”

Are corporate interests always more important than workers' rights? #Google , #Microsoft , #Facebook & many more ended forced arbitration BUT the Chamber of Commerce still says the FAIR Act will be *bad for business*
These corporate GIANTS are changing their own policies and lining up with the #FAIRAct, but Republican legislators still take their cues from the USCC as to how to vote in line with corporate interests.
What will it take to pass the FAIR Act and protect Americans from the pre #MeToo era policy that robs citizens to their right to a day in court? Story to come.
The @AlphabetWorkers is doing incredible work to protect transgender workers and we applaud them! #dropthedeadnames #TransRightsAreHumanRights
SUCCESS! For 3 years, Google contractor @G4S continued to deadname Phares Lee.
Following a pressure campaign, Phares is being issued a new name badge with his chosen name.
This is an important step in the ongoing struggle for TVC access to Google's chosen name policy and ERGs.

Voting rights are preservative of all other rights—protecting the right to vote isn’t about bipartisanship vs. partisanship, but about right vs. wrong. #ForThePeople
