A couple weeks ago, I took the oath as Executive. Since then, we have declared an emergency to protect lives, reorganized government to deliver better results, stood up to the Trump administration, and brought new leadership into the County. This is just the beginning, and I will keep you updated.

This is what’s actually happening with the SAVE Act. Having a National ID requirement is a distraction. Listen to the video which he accurately describes what the threat is—kicking US citizens off the voter rolls via an inaccurate DHS system, and then they have a short window of time to re-register.
