➤➤ URGENT: Trump vows national emergency in D.C. over ICE
John,
Donald Trump is escalating things in D.C… again.
Trump is now threatening to declare a national emergency – meaning he could federalize DC’s police force and take control over how the city is run.
This is more than just political theater. It’s a direct assault on local democracy, home rule, and civic self‑determination.
Democratic Secretaries of State nationwide see the pattern. From data grabs to delegitimizing state election laws, from attacking vote‑by‑mail to threats of federal takeover of local powers — this is part of the same strategy.
We know what’s coming: increased federal overreach, more surveillance, more intimidation, fewer civil liberties.
That’s why we at DASS are working harder than ever supporting every Secretary of State who’s defending against this kind of authoritarian playbook. We're helping with legal challenges, public awareness, and organizing in states where Trump and his allies are already testing the limits.
Will you chip in $3 (or whatever you can) today to help DASS ensure that local governments remain in control of their police, that voters feel safe in their communities, and that democracy doesn’t bend to fear?
