With the midterm elections less than 11 weeks away, the stakes continue to climb as more of the Far Right’s agenda is exposed. Attacks on our children’s education, our reproductive freedoms, our right to vote in free and fair elections (and more!) are just the tip of the iceberg for their radical and regressive proposals. In a recent member briefing, People For’s team of experts highlighted some of these far-right policies that have become the bedrock principles for many Republican candidates’ campaigns. In the days following the Dobbs decision overturning Roe v. Wade, artist Victoria Cassinova felt the same shock many of us had regarding the Supreme Court’s decision – one that has jeopardized reproductive health care for millions of people across the country. To help channel her frustration, Victoria turned to her art, producing a new piece she’s titled “My Choice.” People For organizing fellow Susan Stainman recently sat down with Victoria to discuss her new artwork and what it means to her and the pro-choice movement. As right-wing extremists strengthen their grip on the Republican Party across the country, Americans are fighting back against their regressive and extreme agenda. With Roe v. Wade overturned by a far-right Supreme Court, Kansas was poised to ban abortions in a recent statewide primary election. Voters in Kansas rejected that extremism in a big way – with the measure failing by more than 20% of the vote. As we look to the midterms, we must channel the same energy into defeating extremist agendas and candidates that are cropping up on ballots across the country. The truth has power. That is why an army of politicians, lawyers, political schemers, media personalities, and admirers of former President Donald Trump have tried so hard to keep Americans from learning the truth about his effort to overturn the 2022 election. Fortunately, he failed to overturn the election. He and the corrupt members of his inner circle have failed to keep the truth hidden. And the January 6 Select Committee continues their investigation into the truth about what led up to the insurrection and the need to hold those involved accountable.
