Nakialam ang Common Cause sa Kaso ng Botante sa Minnesota<\/h2>\r\nNoong nakaraang taon, naghain ang Common Cause ng mosyon upang makialam sa isang kasong isinampa ng Department of Justice laban sa Minnesota na humihiling na ibigay nito ang kanilang voter file. Isang district court ang naghain ng\u00a0<\/span>pinagbigyan ang aming mosyon<\/span><\/b>, ibig sabihin ay partido na ngayon ang Common Cause sa kaso, at kami ay\u00a0<\/span>paghingi ng pagpapawalang-bisa nito<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

Ang Legal na Awtoridad ng mga Estado upang Protektahan ang mga Sensitibong Rekord ng Botante<\/h2>\r\nAyon sa batas, ang mga estado, hindi ang pederal na pamahalaan, ang may awtoridad na panatilihin ang kanilang mga file ng botante, na naglalaman ng sensitibong impormasyon kabilang ang mga buong pangalan, address, petsa ng kapanganakan, lisensya sa pagmamaneho at mga bahagyang numero ng Social Security. Gayunpaman, ang administrasyong Trump ay nagsusumikap na kolektahin ang mga database na ito upang bumuo ng kanilang sariling master voter file, isang hakbang na\u00a0<\/span>nagbabanta sa integridad ng ating mga halalan<\/span><\/b>\u00a0at\u00a0<\/span>mga panganib na mawalan ng karapatan<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span>maraming Amerikano<\/span><\/b>\u00a0bago ang halalan sa kalagitnaan ng termino sa 2026.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nKaramihan sa mga estadong ito, kabilang ang Minnesota, ay lumaban sa presyur mula sa DOJ na ibigay ang datos ng mga botante, at\u00a0<\/span>kinasuhan na ngayon dahil dito<\/span><\/b>\u00a0ng administrasyon. Bilang tugon, naghain ang Common Cause ng mga mosyon upang makialam sa ilan sa mga kasong ito. Pinagbigyan ang aming mosyon sa Minnesota.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

Paghingi ng Pagkatanggal sa Trabaho: Ano ang Susunod sa Kaso ng mga Botante sa Minnesota?<\/h2>\r\nSa mga susunod na panahon, hinihiling ng Estado ng Minnesota, ng Common Cause, at ng mga kasosyo nito ang pagbasura sa kasong ito, na tatanggihan ang pagtatangka ng administrasyong Trump na kolektahin ang sensitibong datos na ito.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

Ano ang Nanganganib Kung Kunin ng DOJ ang mga State Voter File?<\/strong><\/p>\r\nPaulit-ulit na ipinahiwatig ni Trump ang kanyang kahandaang pahinain ang ating demokrasya upang manatili sa kapangyarihan. Kung\u00a0<\/span>patuloy na nagkakalat ng mga napatutunayang sabwatan tungkol sa halalan sa 2020<\/span><\/a>\u00a0o\u00a0<\/span>nananawagan sa mga Republikano na "gawing nasyonal ang pagboto,"\u201c<\/span><\/a>\u00a0paulit-ulit niyang ipinakita na\u00a0<\/span>Mas mahalaga sa kanya ang pagkapanalo kaysa sa isang patas at malayang demokrasya<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nAng paghingi ng mga dokumento ng botante ng estado ay isa pang pagtatangka na pahinain ang kapangyarihang itinadhana ng mga estado na pangasiwaan ang mga halalan, at ang pag-aalis ng karapatang ipatupad ng administrasyong Trump gamit ang isang pangunahing dokumento ng botante sa buong bansa ay lubhang nakababahala.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n

Mga Istratehikong Paglilinis ng mga Botante at ang Banta sa 2026 Midterms<\/h2>\r\nAng isang listahang tulad nito ay maaaring gamitin upang magsagawa ng\u00a0<\/span>estratehiko at malawakang paglilinis<\/span><\/b>\u00a0ng mga kwalipikadong botante mula sa mga listahan ng botante, kabilang ang mga paglilinis na naka-target batay sa mga salik tulad ng lokasyon, edad, at kasarian sa pagsisikap na makakuha ng\u00a0<\/span>kalamangan ng partido<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nPagbabahagi ng Datos ng DOJ-DHS: Epekto sa mga Komunidad ng Imigrante sa Minnesota<\/strong>\r\n\r\nAt dahil sa malupit na pag-atake ng Department of Homeland Security sa mga imigrante at komunidad ng mga may kulay, anuman ang kanilang katayuan sa pagkamamamayan, ang isang potensyal na pederal na database na tulad nito ay nagdudulot ng mas malaking panganib \u2013 na ngayon pa lang, ang DOJ\u00a0<\/span>kinilala<\/span><\/a>\u00a0na ito ay\u00a0<\/span>pagbabahagi ng impormasyon ng botante sa DHS<\/span><\/b>. Ang pagkaalam na ang pederal na pamahalaan ay nakakolekta ng isang database ng sensitibong impormasyon ay maaaring manakot sa mga potensyal na botante mula sa mga komunidad na ito at pigilan sila sa pagpaparehistro upang bumoto.\u00a0<\/span>"}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_accordion","_acfe_flexible_toggle":null,"component_accordion":{"heading":"Minnesota Voter Privacy FAQ","panels":[{"panel_heading":"Why did the court grant Common Cause's motion in the Minnesota lawsuit?","panel_copy":"The district court granted the motion to intervene because Common Cause<\/b> represents the interests of Minnesota voters who are directly impacted by the potential release of their private data.
