Can you take a minute?

EXPLOSIVE report on “coordinated voter suppression campaign”

John, MotherJones has the scoop – and it’s even worse than we thought. The Heritage Foundation, a right-wing dark money group, hasn’t just been lobbying for voter suppression. It’s been writing the laws FOR legislators! This bombshell report shows how a single group is “le…
