OK, let's talk about a "well-regulated militia." The NRA used to have the text of just the second half of the Second Amendment emblazoned across their Virginia headquarters. Hmm, I wonder why? 🧵Thread

For the first time ever, the House took a vote on whether or not to end the cruelty of denying incarcerated people their right to vote. Our amendment didn’t pass, but 97 Democrats voted with us. We will not stop fighting until we dismantle white supremacy in all of its forms.

Californians voted for #YesOnProp17 this year, which amends #California’s constitution so Californians who have completed their prison term can fully participate in our democracy by voting. We need more of this! #RestoreYourVote nbcnews.com/politics/2020-el…

After California restores felon voting rights, activists see growing national trend
