While many people are focused on DC, Arizona is facing a full-blown attack on democracy.

30+ bills attacking voting rights & democratic norms - including one that would take away voters' right to decide presidential elections (!)

A thread -->
AZ GOP legislators have introduced bills that would:
-Give legislature power to decide presidential elections ( #HB2720)
-Eliminate vote by mail ( #HB2370)
-Purge 100,000 voters from vote by mail list ( #SB1069)
-Criminalize protesters ( #HB2309)

...among others.
These voter suppression bills comes after months in which the @AZGOP spread lies about the 2020 election - at one point encouraging their followers to "die for Trump."

The Arizona Republican Party is rejecting democracy - full stop.
Organizers in Arizona have stopped bills like these before (although never this many all at once!) We CAN beat them but it is going to take a huge mobilization.

What can you do?

Call your legislators! Call 877-406-6303 - you'll get instructions, then be connected to the switchboard - ask them to look up your state senator & connect you! Tell them to vote NO on voter suppression bills like SB1069.

Tell your friends to call, too!
Once you've called....
