A few desperate politicians are using the same tired playbook from 2020, attempting to intimidate Black voters in Detroit. But in MI, we got each other’s backs. Voters will decide this election, and what type of future we’ll have. ➡️ Our statement: linktr.ee/wtpmi

MI voters have more options than ever when it comes to absentee voting, and that’s a good thing! Counting all those ballots may take a while, and we may not know results on #ElectionDay. We just need to be patient while election workers ensure every vote is counted. #WeVoteMI

Last November, we came together across race and place - and we’re still here. Learn about the amazing work of Northern MI organizers and @DefundBergman to hold their reps accountable and build people power ⬇️
Thread: It started w/handful of #MI01 constituents, about 45 of us from across the second largest Congressional District east of the Mississippi. We knew we had to hold our Rep. Jack Bergman & his big donors accountable after his #BigLie led to the #Jan 6 violent coup attempt

We’re out at the Capitol today for the NAACP rally to protect voting rights. Lots of folks speaking out today against GOP anti-voter bills #WeVoteMI

"The bulk of proposed changes would impose new hurdles to absentee voting...they particularly targeted Detroit, the state’s largest city, which has a majority-Black population." We won't accept the silencing of Black and Brown voices. We'll fight back. ow.ly/qVzh50EnBys

Announcing opposition in a word document ≠ actual action and accountability. Michigan's largest corporations have also poured money into GOP electeds who are now pushing these voter suppression bills. Will they just "announce opposition" and keep donating, or pull their funds?
Leaders of Michigan’s largest companies announce their opposition to voting law changes that reduce participation in elections.

Last year, Michiganders turned out to vote in record numbers and made use of the new voting rights we gained by passing Proposal 3 in 2018. Instead of building on that progress, Republican lawmakers want to make voting more difficult. bridgemi.com/michigan-govern…

In November, we showed up across our state to build multiracial, working class power & delivered a safe and secure election. The response from people who tried to suppress our votes? More voter suppression bills. Take Action ➡️ bit.ly/MIVoteRights bridgemi.com/michigan-govern…
Regardless of age, gender, zip code or religion, we all have a right to have a voice in our democracy. We must be expanding voting access - not restricting it. Tell the Michigan Elections Committee to protect Michigan voting rights. cc: @WeMakeMichigan secure.everyaction.com/SMBcX…

Americans have long fought to make sure our right to vote is honored, ballots are cast and every vote is counted. But Michigan Republicans are attacking our #FreedomToVote. Together, we must keep fighting attempts to silence our voices and ensure the will of the people prevails.
