Time to disempower the Electoral College with passage of the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact by states with 270 electoral college votes. States with 222 votes have already signed on to give them all to the winner of the presidential popular vote. Ready Gov Bottoms?

Newsom paved the way. Now every Democrat Governor should commute every death penalty sentence and end death row once and for all. How about it Governors Bottoms and Hinojosa?!

Democrats need new leadership in Congress to guide the legislative package to enforce our household, social, and political rights. How about making Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Speaker of the House and Elizabeth Warren leader of the Senate Democrats?

Now is the time for the incoming Democratic Congress to begin advocating for a Federal Job Guarantee social rights agenda that will secure economic opportunity for all, balance work and family, and level the playing field between employees and employers.

All US state election authorities should prepare now to refuse to hand over ballots or voter machine records to the FBI or the DOJ until authoritative duplicates have been safeguarded. The Trump regime cannot be trusted to respect our voting rights.
