U.S. Supreme Court backs Republican in crucial Pennsylvania ballots case
The right-wing court struck another blow against democracy by throwing out a lower court's ruling that allowed the counting of mail-in ballots that were missing dates. Crucially, this eliminates the precedent for the states of PA, DE, and NJ, opening the door for all sorts of Republican shenanigans to exclude votes just because someone had written in the wrong date or other minor errors.

Today’s Action: Get out the abortion vote in Michigan!
Your involvement in local politics this year could mean the difference between American women having access to legal, safe abortions or the further criminalization of life-saving reproductive healthcare.
At least 21 states are preparing for crucial elections this fall for state Supreme Court justices, governorships, and statehouses that could turn the tide in the fight for abortion rights. Michigan is just one of those states that are fighting to stay blue this November. So many of our progressive values are at risk, but abortion access is of top concern. The overturning of Roe v. Wade placed the lives of women throughout the country at even greater risk, with those in red states subjected to extremist trigger laws designed to force unwanted and dangerous pregnancies. We must ensure that no more anti-choice conservatives are elected to public office — lives quite literally depend on it.
Even if it’s not at risk in your state, plugging into local elections across the country is crucial to ensure Roe v. Wade is codified into law at every level. Neighbors Defending Democracy is hosting an informational meeting TONIGHT at 7 pm EDT with Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson and Senator Mallory McMorrow where they’ll discuss the future of abortion in Michigan, as well as the organization’s strategy to protect abortion on the ballot this upcoming election. Tune in and find out how you can fight for national abortion access this November!
