Our banner drop this morning was a success! @ASU pass the #youthpowerreforms @LetsUnpac
Young people made the difference this election. Its time for @ASU to pass the #youthpowerreforms to cancel class on Election Day & stop spending OUR tuition $ on lobbying. Preparing us for the future mean protecting our democracy!
Happy Halloween! While we love frights this spooky season, this one goes *too* far. We'll stick with the monster mash, rather than candidates who want to take away our rights + refuse to concede if they lose! cnn.com/2022/10/16/pol…
thanks @SenMarkKelly @SenatorSinema for co-sponsoring the #DISCLOSEAct! young voters are glad to see you take a stand against dark $$ that corrupts our elections, and we urge you to get this bill across the finish line! @LetsUnpac
psst: you can easily see how much your Senator gets from big pharma on websites like @OpenSecretsDC. a broken democracy isn't a hypothetical problem; it looks like diabetics rationing insulin because members of Congress won't stand up to their donors.

Politicians make it harder for us to vote because they know that if we were able to actually make our voices heard, they'd lose their jobs, their donors would lose profits, and most importantly, popular policies would ACTUALLY PASS.
ASU spent almost $500,000 on political lobbying in just 2021 alone! That’s equivalent to almost 71 individual in-state students’ tuition annually.
Join Leila Winbury so UnPAC can fight for a better future for her people as well as ours. @LetsUnpac
We all know that big money in politics and restrictive voting laws means that our generation never sees urgency from institutions. That’s why we’re organizing with fellow Sundevils to ask ASU to get OUR tuition money out of a broken democracy and advocate for pro-voter laws!
Young people have the numbers + the power to make a real difference in elections. That means that politicians need to listen to our demands if they want to win our votes: action on the climate crisis, gun violence, and the cost of higher ed.
Today was the last day to submit signatures for the Arizona Fair Elections ballot initiative, and our @unpac_az organizers got THOUSANDS of people to sign the petition to protect democracy in Arizona!
Young people are BEGGING our reps to take action on climate change, but SCOTUS just ruled to limit the EPA’s ability to regulate carbon emissions. This is boon for fossil fuel executives that hurts literally everyone else who has a stake in a liveable climate (i.e. everyone).

Meet some of our amazing new organizers! These are the people who will be fixing our democracy at the state level so that our generation can see the changes WE need.
Dems are using the Dobbs decision to fundraise for their campaigns, which 1) is disgusting and 2) demonstrates a larger problem in our political system: money matters more to politicians than actually working to pass popular and urgent policies. We must get money out of politics.
@hungry4theftva Arizonans [for fair elections] obv 👀
In this moment, remember, there are two kinds of power in this world: organized people and organized money. We as young people may not have much money, but we CAN organize ourselves and our communities to fight for the futures WE need.
they're a 4 but they organize their friends + community to protect our democracy
🔥 collecting dozens of pages of signatures in favor of the Arizona Fair Elections Act so we can fix our democracy >>>>

psst: you can easily see how much your Senator gets from big pharma on websites like @OpenSecretsDC. a broken democracy isn't a hypothetical problem; it looks like diabetics rationing insulin because members of Congress won't stand up to their donors.
Here's your list of every Republican senator who voted AGAINST making insulin affordable: (1/4) John A. Barrasso, WY Marsha Blackburn, TN Roy Blunt, MO John Boozman, AR Mike Braun, IN Richard Burr, NC Shelley Moore Capito, WV John Cornyn, TX Tom Cotton, AR Kevin Cramer, ND
Politicians make it harder for us to vote because they know that if we were able to actually make our voices heard, they'd lose their jobs, their donors would lose profits, and most importantly, popular policies would ACTUALLY PASS.
Reminder that no one sucks more than AZ Republican State Legislators! Get out and support your local pro-public education candidates #NoNewVouchers
BREAKING: “There would be war.” A veteran Republican state senator says legislators will retaliate against public schools by cutting funds if a separate vouchers petition drive is successful in September. @12News 12news.com/article/news/p…
Corrupt politicians who are bought and paid for by the fossil fuel lobby have been blocking action on the climate crisis for decades. Young people across the political spectrum have clarity: we must get money out of politics so we can take action for a liveable future.
Right now, money in politics corrupts our government and prevents it from responding to our demands, and politicians who fear our power pass laws to make voting inaccessible for students and young people, but we can change that.
Young people have the numbers + the power to make a real difference in elections. That means that politicians need to listen to our demands if they want to win our votes: action on the climate crisis, gun violence, and the cost of higher ed.
Today was the last day to submit signatures for the Arizona Fair Elections ballot initiative, and our @unpac_az organizers got THOUSANDS of people to sign the petition to protect democracy in Arizona!
Want evidence of how our democracy isn't working for young people? Look at the issue of the cost of higher ed. Our generation is pleading for ANYTHING to make it so we can afford to get an education, but our elected officials do nothing.
Our politicians aren’t addressing the issues young people care about. We have yet to see action on climate change, the cost of higher education, and what’s more, Gru is rising. It’s truly despicable how our system silences the voices of young people.
Those charged with protecting our democracy are asleep at the wheel.
Arizonans, not politicians, should make decisions about their health care. And the vast majority of Arizonans agree — women should have the right to access an abortion. I’ll continue fighting for reproductive rights in the Senate.
In WV v. EPA, the fossil fuel industry’s Republican lackeys challenged an EPA rule that does not exist, meaning there was no "case or controversy" to consider. But Republican justices threw precedent to the wind and pounced on this challenge.
Politicians urge us to vote without acknowledging the strucutral barriers that many young people face to voting. We know that our voices deserved to be heard in politics, and we're demanding that our states and universities protect our access to the ballot.
“I tweet about voting. It’s really all anyone can do.” — Barack Obama bit.ly/3PMbYeN
This is what happens in a political system that disenfranchises students and young people. Funding for public schools should NEVER be used as a political football.
Update from Session—all but 3 members of the @PAHouseGOP just voted to take away funding from in-state students at University of Pittsburgh over medical research, claiming that it’s a “pro-life” vote. Apparently its “pro-life” to take $14K/year away from OUR OWN college students.
Broken democracy has real world consequences. At the same time that SCOTUS is eviscerating our rights, our democracy is fracturing, making it harder to protect our rights at the ballot box. Young people know this, and that's why we're working to fix our democracy.
Texas' gerrymandered maps will make it more difficult for women in the state who oppose its draconian abortion laws to affect the political process and bring about change, Brennan Center's @mcpli explained in @dallasnews. dallasnews.com/news/politics/…
We can't trust corporations with the welfare of our democracy or our rights. As @JuddLegum has reported, numerous corporations who promised not to donate to antidemocratic politicians have done so anyway, and now this. ⬇️ It is urgent and essential to get money out of politics.
The CEOs who spent massive sums stacking our governing bodies with undemocratic, anti-abortion leadership only to promise to cover their own employees abortions have not earned our praise. They have just further succeeded in choosing who gets reproductive rights.
In the Dobbs decision, SCOTUS argued that people can use the democratic process to influence abortion law. At the same time, SCOTUS ruled to halt fair representation in Louisiana. It's hard to make your voice heard at the ballot box if you live in a gerrymandered district.
NEW: By a 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court halts a lower court order that had struck down Louisiana's racial gerrymander. All three liberals dissent.
It just doesn’t stop: the captured Supreme Court has decided to consider a North Carolina case that could give state legislatures unchecked power over federal elections.
Also this ⬇️⬇️⬇️ A case that makes it harder to take action on climate change hurts us all. Allowing this ruling to be framed as a blue-versus-red issue covers up the fact that it’s actually a fossil-fuel-lobby-versus-everyone-else issue.
Yes, the SCOTUS ruling in WV v EPA is a "blow to Biden's climate agenda," as many reporters (including me) have written. But this kind of framing misses that it's really a blow to efforts to cut emissions in line w/ climate science. Physics doesn't care about politics.
