In TX, 1 in 5 people were incorrectly identified as a non-citizen in the federal SAVE system and removed from their voting rolls. Ohio uses that same federal system. How many Ohio voters have been incorrectly flagged and disenfranchised?
After running 18m voters through DHS database, TXidentified roughly 2700 people who could be non-citizens Officials investigated those 2700 and wound up referring just 117 of them to the AG. Nearly 600 people flagged as non-citizens were actually citizens (staggering 21% error)

It’s honestly so disrespectful and irresponsible that the national media has mostly ignored the @afscme33 city workers’ strike in Philly, now in week two. It’s a huge story with massive implications for the 6th biggest city in the country. Hell, I’ll write about it! Email me!

Closing a grocery store is devastating to a community. This article says: "The company said it expects 'a modest financial benefit' from the closures." but that's not good enough for the family who just lost their main source of food in their neighborhood. Don't do this, @Kroger.

A few months ago, the #dropkickmurphys recorded a video in #Solidarity with the @ohiou faculty who were forming their #union with @AAUP @OFTunion. Today, those workers voted #UnionYes and joined the @AFLCIO labor movment. When workers across all professions unite, we win.

Tomorrow is the #NoOnSB1 day of action! While the sponsor of SB 1 is trying to defend his bad bill to the House Committee, faculty, students, staff, and community members around the state will be engaged in campus activities to demonstrate opposition. Let's go! #StopSB1
