Kirten Gillibrand promised to be committed to helping “our families”. That means you should support families in PR and their right to vote.

While this seems like a form of safety to keep everything fair, it can be a form of suppression because homeless people (who are citizens) sometimes don’t have an ID. Additionally, there can be a stigma against homeless people and people who are mentally ill. ]]> 2021-01-28 13:44:00 UTC https://padlet.com/dashafry/ysy62arclvegw3kn/wish/1136279612 dashafry https://padlet.com/dashafry/ysy62arclvegw3kn/wish/1136309559 https://www.npr.org/2020/09/13/912519039/a-look-at-voter-suppression-tactics-ahead-of-the-election
