Hear her when she says they're coming for women's right to vote.

You know how people called women hysterical for predicting the right wing would take down Roe v. Wade (which they've done) and then attack access to birth control (which they're doing)? Hear me when I say that women's very right to vote is next.
We Asked Pete Hegseth if Women Should Have the Right to Vote. The Answer Was … Unsettling.

House Republican schemes to deprive millions of women of voting rights
WASHINGTON—A prominent member of the hard right House “Freedom Caucus,” Rep. Chip Roy, R-Texas, plans to deprive millions of women of their rights to vote, a prominent member of the Progressive Democrats of America says.
Roy is pushing a bill, HR22, the SAVE Act, which PDA member Mickey Leader warned could cut female voter turnout by 30%.
The SAVE Act as a target the progressives could take on and defeat, using the methods the session discussed, said Leader and Mike Fox, PDA’s deputy executive director who chaired the February 6 zoom session of 250-plus people.
The act’s restriction that knocks out women is simple, Leader said. It requires anyone showing up to vote to bring identification with a name identical to the one they used when first registering.
“If your voter registration says. ‘Mickey Liskin,’ and the driver’s license you present” to pick up a ballot “says ‘Mickey Leader,’ you’re disqualified,” she warned. “Thirty percent of women will be knocked out on the spot” because they never re-registered under their current names.

The DNC alone intends to initially invest a six-figure dollar amount in the wide-ranging effort, with plans to scale to seven figures as the summer goes on.
The summer program is focused on voter engagement and registration, particularly with voters who wouldn't otherwise hear Democrats' messaging. The DNC has signed up 16,000 volunteers, twice as many as it typically has in an off-election year, according to a Democratic strategist familiar with the plans. As part of the summer effort, Democrats will urge volunteers to connect with voters in less politically dominated parts of life, with the outline of the plan pointing to community groups, book clubs and social media platforms as examples.
"We are deploying an army of thousands of volunteers to activate their communities, register voters, and make sure the Republicans who are putting billionaires ahead of working and middle class Americans lose their elections in 2025 and lose their seats in the midterms," DNC chairman Ken Martin said in a statement.

“Organizing Summer” will include:
Voter registration events and activations through Democratic state parties to ensure Democrats are meeting the moment and countering Republican efforts to register voters.
Equipping volunteers to authentically enter conversation in non-political spaces, both within their personal networks and in their communities, online and in-person, such as in sports forums, community groups, book clubs, and on social media platforms.
In-person organizing at functions across the country to bolster Democratic outreach and rally against the budget bill such as at summer concerts, sporting events, and state and county fairs.
Empowering supporters with a direct pathway to share feedback they receive from voters, and what they are seeing online, helping the party inform its messaging and strategy on an ongoing basis.
“Organizing Summer” will boost the Democratic Party’s organizing program by training volunteers and conducting outreach to meet voters where they are and registering thousands of voters across the country, putting us in the best possible position to win the November 2025 elections and the midterms in 2026.

The Objective: Grow The Tent
* Building on the party's long-term infrastructure by creating an extended network of grassroots volunteers and messengers in key Gubernatorial, House, and Senate battlegrounds and other localities across the country
* Equip State Parties to complete voter registration drives with tools for tabling and community outreach and plans that are locally led and tailored to the communities they serve
* Design multi-modal engagement that emphasizes a "feedback-centered approach," integrating digital, in-person, and community outreach so no conversation happens in a vacuum|
* Network Strategy Program: Develop and train organizers, volunteer leadership and supporters on organizing and mobilization basics
* Activate supporters in targeted congressional districts to build community, host in-person network events, and take meaningful action, in both political and non-political spaces
* Arm volunteers with pro-Democratic content and talking points on the devastating effect of Trump's policies and actions on everyday Americans
* Utilize Influencers to act as organizers who encourage their audiences to get politically involved and mobilize their contacts.
Despite public opposition by nearly two-to-one in polling to Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act (BBB), the legislation passed by 218–214 in the House and 51–50 in the Senate -- mostly along party lines.
Trump, who signed the legislation into law July 4, exerted extraordinary pressure on members -- at considerable cost to vulnerable Republicans -- to sign the mega spending bill, which provides significant tax breaks for billionaires while gutting education spending, Medicaid, family health care and food assistance.
The Organizing Summer message strategy includes a lazer focus on the backlash to the BBB and providing volunteers, messengers and influencers the tools to hold GOP members accountable for their complicity in its passage.
Key among the Party's targeted Gubernatorial, Senate and municipal battlegrounds is the DCCC's target list of 35 competitive Republican-held congressional districts. Democrats are within striking distance of reclaiming the House majority, needing only a net gain of four seats to topple the GOP.
Organizing Summer follows the People’s Town Halls campaign, a listening tour launched March 14 in competitive districts where vulnerable GOP House members have refused to meet with their constituents in person about concerns over Trump's then-pending budget resolution.

Play on an Alannis Morisette song. 
The song talks about the sabotaging of women by women.
There are definitely men out there doing that in America today.
