The choice is simple.

Either we defend our democracy, or we watch it fail.   John, in recent years we’ve repeatedly been confronted by the fact that American democracy — even in the 21st century — is fragile. Its survival relies on vigilance, on patriotism, and on courage. And when elections take place, it …

Unlawful legislative maps → unlawful right-wing policy proposals
