How to Fix Democracy Itโ€™s a simple template, check if your state has initiative powers (26 do.). Check your city charter. Pick something that polls above 60%. Write it as a constitutional amendment, not a statute. Gather signatures. With 60% support, get it to the polls. GOP Legislators lose.

Massachusetts neighbors tried to stop ICE from ripping away a mother who was with two children, including a newborn baby. The agents had no warrant. Those who want โ€œillegalsโ€ to uphold the law should start by upholding it themselves. This is vile, cruel, and unforgivable. Period. #OnYourSide
