Harris on LGBTQ Rights
The ÌÒ×ÓÊÓÆµwould push a future Harris administration to build on the Biden-Harris history and use the power of the federal government to protect LGBTQ people from harm in as many ways as possible.
Harris on Abortion
The ÌÒ×ÓÊÓÆµ will use every tool available to ensure that a potential Harris administration delivers on the promise to protect the right to abortion by signing legislation that ensures everyone who needs abortion care can access it, no matter who they are, where they live, or how much money they have.
Trump on the Criminal Legal System
The ÌÒ×ÓÊÓÆµstands at the ready to wield litigation, advocacy, and community mobilization to combat a second Trump administration’s attempts to exacerbate inequities in our criminal legal system and continue the critical work of building safe communities.
Trump on Surveillance, Protest, and Free Speech
Enforcing the law is the central role of the executive branch, regardless of who is president. And though Donald Trump has threatened to abuse this power, the ÌÒ×ÓÊÓÆµwill work to change the politics around the First Amendment and individual liberty so politicians are more likely to defend them.
Trump on Voting Rights
A second Trump administration will renew efforts to erode constitutional foundations of our democracy, make it harder for Americans to vote. The ÌÒ×ÓÊÓÆµdefeated the previous Trump administration’s attempt to do this and will use every tool at our disposal to stop it again.
