Common Dreams: '범죄 조직': 트럼프와 18명의 공모자가 조지아 선거 사건에서 기소됨
조지아주 커먼코즈(Common Cause Georgia) 대표이사인 오나 데니스(Aunna Dennis)는 "오늘의 기소는 법원에서 장기전이 될 수 있는 과정의 시작일 뿐이며, 기소가 곧 유죄 판결을 의미하는 것은 아니라는 점을 알고 있습니다."라고 덧붙였습니다.
그럼에도 불구하고 데니스는 "오늘 트럼프와 그의 공모자들에 대한 기소는 조지아 유권자들이 우리의 가장 신성한 권리를 훔치려는 사람은 누구든 책임을 져야 한다는 확고한 주장을 보여주는 것"이라고 말했습니다.
"조지아 국민은 이제 우리가 어떤 유형의 정부를 옮기고 싶은지 잠시 생각해 볼 시간을 갖게 되었습니다.

Raw Story: Sold! Wealthy N.Y. congressman dumps up to $37.1 million in stocks and bonds amid pressure to divest
“When elected officials are trading stocks at a time when they’re supposed to be overseeing companies, we need to make sure that the public has the faith and confidence that elected officials are doing the bidding of the public interest and not trying to line their pockets and do what’s in their private interest,” Aaron Scherb, senior director of legislative affairs for Common Cause, a nonpartisan government reform organization, said at the time.

Raleigh News & Observer: Town hall by town hall, some stirrings of democracy in North Carolina
Tuesday’s meeting was the sixth in a series of 19 statewide town halls sponsored by the good-government advocacy group Common Cause North Carolina.
Several years ago in Raleigh, Moral Mondays protesters descended on the Legislative Building to protest the legislature’s actions. That movement faded during the COVID pandemic. Now Common Cause is seeking to rally people where they live.

Wisconsin Examiner: What a temper tantrum by the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s chief justice tells us
“Look, the conservatives sowed this,” Jay Heck, executive director of Common Cause-Wisconsin, observes of the bad blood on the Court. “They sowed discord.”
“What’s happening now is a direct result of conservatives’ decision they’d take all this underground and not meet in public,” says Heck.
Given their track record, “If conservatives were the new majority there would be no question about what they’d do,” Heck adds. “They’d name a conservative chief justice and say, ‘We have a 4-3...

Providence Journal: In a reversal, RI Board of Elections will now scrutinize Matos’ nomination signatures
Common Cause Rhode Island Executive Director John Marion Jr. credited the board's decision to dig deeper on the Matos signatures and to do it in public.
"The board made that decision in the right way – after publicly debating the tradeoffs they face," Marion wrote. "We won’t know how to fix this signature process moving forward unless we know the scope of the problem now."

The Atlantic: The Abortion Backlash Reaches Ohio
“It’s this ‘Don’t tread on me’ moment where voters are being activated,” says Catherine Turcer, the executive director of Common Cause Ohio, a good-government advocacy group that helped lead the effort to defeat the amendment.
“Voters don’t spend a lot of time thinking about the Ohio constitution. They probably don’t spend a ton of time thinking about voting rights,” Turcer told me. But, she said, “the attempt to dilute voter power so that it would impact a vote on reproductive rights made it really...

The executive director of Common Cause Ohio, Catherine Turcer, noted that the 1912 constitutional convention that birthed the current amendment provisions sought to check a corrupt and unaccountable government.

Boston Globe: Spate of debates will give R.I. congressional candidates chances to carve off slices of support
John M. Marion, executive director of Common Cause Rhode Island, said the busy debate schedule will give candidates lots of chances to secure chunks of support in what is expected to be a low-turnout special election. The primary is Sept. 5, and the special election is Nov. 7.
“The candidates are trying to put together small slices of the electorate into a winning coalition,” Marion said. “And whether it’s debating this week around issues of war and peace or debating last week about issues of racial equality, they are...
