During President Joe Biden's fiery and inspirational State of the Union speech on March 7, he stated that his second term would focus on ensuring that women will continue to have access to abortion and all reproductive health care and that everyone will have the freedom to vote, read any book, study any subject and make history, not erase it; live in a democracy, not an authoritarian regime; and graduate college without huge debts.

The likely Republican nominee for president wants to take these freedoms away from you and be a dictator only on “day one,” or longer.

I urge people to re-elect Joe Biden and vote for Democrats up and down the ballot because they will defend and save our democracy, which is under daily attack by the Republican Party, whose leader still believes the 2020 election was stolen.
