Portland voters responding to “Question 2” on the ballot have a chance to take back their power by giving an elected mayor executive authority, giving the city council recalling power, and creating a participatory budgeting ordinance. Read more here: https://t.co/2LSrZirHb3

All that money from the elites is being spent on attack campaigns because they know the people of Portland are ready for change - ready for a government that actually represents us and is accountable to the people. #OurVotesAreDemands #PoorPeoplesCampaign

[Maine Poor People’s Campaign @MainePPCampaign]

One of @UniteThePoor’s call to action this season is #DemocracyIsOnTheBallot. In Portland, Maine, democracy is literally on the ballot. The injustice spewed from the city manager’s office has gone on far too long, and we won’t be silent anymore! #OurVotesAreDemands. .

[Maine Poor People’s Campaign @MainePPCampaign]

The unchecked power of the city manager isn’t an attack on just one group - these racist, anti-worker, anti-immigrant policies affect us all. We deserve a responsible, responsive city government that protects ALL of us. From @trmacmillan https://t.co/NkeKB4JorH

The city manager has allowed homeless camps to be cleared, long delayed raising the minimum wage, and has lacked transparency and accountability with every decision.

[Maine Poor People’s Campaign @MainePPCampaign]

The KKK has a long history in Portland. In 1923, thousands of members rallied to change the structure of power for the local government - instead of electing a mayor, a hired city manager would have full control. https://t.co/jQ5jCpoZaf

[Maine Poor People’s Campaign @MainePPCampaign]

City Managers first installed by the KKK hijacked the democratic process and excluded the people from the big decisions in Portland Maine for nearly a century. This year, we have a chance to undo their work and shape a more accountable government. #OurVotesAreDemands

@CCLMaine Ummmmm…. You do know you can’t terminate a pregnancy after the pregnancy is done right? Like if the woman has the baby than an abortion would be impossible because there is no longer a pregnancy to terminate.

You’re not really a movement, until you put some moves into it! #PoorPeoplesCampaign

[Rev. Dr. William J. Barber II @RevDrBarber]

This cannot be about just one day or one issue. It wasn't in '63, and it's not today. Anyone who tries to limit this to just one issue is not properly remembering the march in '63, nor understanding the pain and the problems we face today.

@Sen_JoeManchin & @LeaderMcConnell – why are people still going to jail to defend voting rights?

“If the new attempts at voter suppression do not stop the poor Americans from turning out at the polls, the Third Reconstruction will prevail. As the saying goes, “third time’s the charm.”” @JeffDSachs #3rdReconstruction #PoorPeoplesCampaign https://t.co/1awNqV1lcX

54 percent of Texans from across the political spectrum think abortion is overregulated or regulated enough.

TX already has some of the most restrictive laws on abortion access in the nation, including a mandatory sonogram and 24-hour waiting period. 😡
