This month, we recognize the 60th anniversary of the #VotingRightsAct and the legacy of the Black civil rights activists who fought to make it a reality. Since its passage which prohibited racial discrimination at the ballot box, extremist lawmakers and billionaires have continued trying to make it harder to make our voices heard — and we’re only seeing these attempts increase. This is a coordinated attack on the freedom to vote, and make no mistake: it targets Black, Brown, Indigenous, immigrant, low-income, young, and new voters the most.

Since then, extremist lawmakers and the wealthy elite have continued trying to make it harder to make our voices heard through gerrymandering, voter ID laws, voter roll purges, voter intimidation, and more. In 2025, we’ve only seen these attempts to steal our rights and resources increase. These are coordinated attacks on the freedom to vote, and make no mistake: They target Black, Brown, Indigenous, immigrant, low-income, young, and new voters the most. As part of the @State Voices Affiliated Network, we continue to fight for a reality where everyone's voices are heard and our communities are represented. From @Alabama Forward successfully stopping extremist lawmakers from disenfranchising Black voters in Allen v. Milligan to @Minnesota Voices’ expanding access to the ballot box to 55,000 Minnesotans impacted by incarceration, our network’s fight for voting rights continues year round.

This administration is testing out authoritarian tactics on our most vulnerable community members — detaining and disappearing friends, family, and coworkers without due process. Don’t assume it will stop there. It’s on us to protect each other. Here’s what to do to prepare in advance, during ICE raids, and if someone is detained. [Image Description: Four graphics. The first graphic has a photo of a person looking away from the camera wearing a baseball cap and grey hoodie speaking into the microphone towards a crowd of anti-ICE protesters. Overlaid on the photo is text that reads “Protect community members targeted by ICE. Here’s how.” The second, third, and fourth graphics have beige backgrounds and red, black, and white text text. The text on the first graphic says “Prepare in advance. Check in on friends, coworkers and loved ones. Help compile important documents and keep copies. Find an immigration lawyer at bit.ly/find-immigration-lawyers.” The third graphic has text that reads “Be ready during ICE raids and sightings. Ask ICE agents for names and badge numbers. Ask people detained for their names and who you can call. Alert your local hotline. Find yours at bit.ly/immigration-hotlines.” The final graphic has text that reads “Know what to do if someone is detained. Ask people detained for their A#. Find out where they’ve been detained. Learn more at bit.ly/ICE-detention.”]
Presidential elections may receive the most attention and fanfare, but local elections are just as important to our communities. State and local elections for mayor, city council, ballot measures, and more have huge impacts on our daily lives. Things like affordable housing, the cost of public transit, worker protections, and more are often determined by local elections. [INSERT ANY UPCOMING LOCAL ELECTION INFO] Make sure you’re ready.

From the Supreme Court upholding the Trump administration’s ban on trans people in the military to attacks on trans athletes, we’re seeing nationwide attempts to rollback our right to express our most authentic selves. By targeting the rights of trans people, the administration is laying the groundwork to target all of us. Trans rights are human rights, and gender expansiveness is inherent to our humanity. We all deserve the chance to thrive and live in our full dignity, not just the greedy powerful few. [STATE TABLE] remains committed to protecting trans rights and the ability for everyone to live freely. Find resources to advocate for trans, nonbinary, and gender expansive rights: https://transgenderlawcenter.org/resources/ [Two graphics.
