A clear majority of Americans (including Catholics and Republicans) don't think police and politicians should insert themselves between a woman and her doctor.

The vast majority of Americans think weapons of war should not be carried on American streets.

Because the majority of Americans disagree with Republican "ideas," they've increasingly used voter suppression and voter intimidation as a primary strategy over the past 40 years.

The first piece of legislation the House of Representatives passed this session, HR1, helped establish an absolute right to vote. Mitch McConnell and Republicans in the Senate have refused to even hold a hearing on it.

If you care about the survival and expansion of democracy in America, this may be your last chance to get out there and vote.
