Did you know voter registration is the NUMBER ONE obstacle to voting in the United States? Here are three simple solutions to make registering to vote more accessible, from CLC's @mannalhaddad.

The Senate’s poor enforcement of unethical behavior cannot continue. As CLC's Eric Kashdan explains here, it's time to create an INDEPENDENT office for ethics investigations in the Senate, modeled on @CongressEthics.

The effects of the Supreme Court's Shelby County v. Holder decision are still being felt over a decade later, especially in the form of anti-voter laws that harm voters of color. #SCOTUS & voting expert @PaulSmithCLC explains.

Our democracy works best when EVERY voter can participate, & civic engagement groups empower voters to be part of the political process. CLC's @mannalhaddad & @VoterCenter's Tom Lopach explain why these vital groups are under attack.

Nonpartisan civic engagement groups help voters participate in democracy, but their work is under attack. CLC's @mannalhaddad & @VoterCenter's Tom Lopach explain how these attacks make it harder for civic engagement groups to do this work.

ICYMI: Voters have a fundamental right to know who is spending money to influence our vote. The @FEC's decision AGAINST adopting a proposal to allow certain donors to bypass long-standing transparency rules is a win for voters, as @SGhoshCLC explains. #CLCexplains
Here's a quick explainer on how coordination between candidates' campaigns and election spending groups drowns out the voices of everyday Americans in our democracy, from @SGhoshCLC.

Voters have a right to know who’s spending money to influence our vote. Today, the @FEC considered a proposal that would have allowed certain political donations to bypass long-standing transparency rules. As @SGhoshCLC explains here, it was thankfully NOT adopted. #CLCExplains
#ArtificialIntelligence is a game changer, and it’s already being used in our elections to distort reality & mislead voters in dangerous ways. We're urging Congress to pass three bipartisan AI election bills to rein in its use.

Upon passing and enacting the MIVRA, Michigan would become the 7th state to adopt a state-level Voting Rights Act (state VRA). Learn about state VRAs & how they strengthen the freedom to vote for Black & brown voters in this #CLCExplains video with @LataNott. 2/end
Voters have a right to know who is spending money to influence our vote, but PACs, super PACs and secret money groups are being used to hide the true sources of election spending. CLC's @AdavNoti explains...with props!

@SGhoshCLC @LataNott @DelaneyMarsco What is redboxing, and how are political campaigns and election spending groups using this brazen practice to skirt #CampaignFinance law? CLC's Aaron McKean (@Run421) breaks it all down here. 5/

PACs, super PACs and secret money groups, oh my! What's the difference, and how are they used to hide the true sources of election spending from voters? We turned to CLC's Executive Director @AdavNoti for a quick, watered-down explanation in our latest #CLCExplains video.
Voters have a right to know that the person representing them is going to serve the public interest, and not their own wallet. That's why personal financial disclosure forms are an important requirement for candidates when they run, as CLC's @DelaneyMarsco explains.
#CLCexplains
What happens when a candidate fails to disclose a complete and accurate picture of their financial background while they're running for office? CLC’s @DelaneyMarsco offers an explanation, and a cautionary example.
(Hint: he was in the news A LOT last year).
#CLCexplains
Illegal coordination drowns out the voices of everyday Americans in our democracy. But how did coordination between candidates' campaigns & "independent" election spending groups become so commonplace?
The answer involves Citizens United v. FEC. More from @SGhoshCLC. #CLCexplains
