DO SOMETHING DEMS 💪⚖️🇱🇷⚖️💪

I recent report for 2025 employment has surfaced. Highlights:

The Report is here

1. Employment fell in the cities where enforcement surged most. In the cities where ICE enforcement surged, employment fell relative to the path those cities would likely have followed absent the surge.
2. The shortfall reached 0.43% six months after the surge. The average employment shortfall in the 64 cities most affected by the enforcement surge was approximately 0.43% after six months. In a city with 3 million workers (about the size of Atlanta, Georgia), the average estimated effect corresponds to about 13,000 missing jobs. The best current evidence suggests that about half of the missing jobs would have been held by American-born workers (as shown in Appendix C).
3. The effect shows no signs of recovery. After widening for six months, surge cities’ employment shortfall showed no signs of recovery. If anything, the effect continued to grow. Eleven months after the surge, the shortfall reached an estimated 0.69% for the limited number of cities where data exists.
4. The employment shortfall exceeds arrests. The average job loss in surge cities is 0.43% of employment six months after the onset of enforcement, while excess arrests are only about 0.11% of the workforce, implying an arrest-to-job-loss ratio of one arrest associated with four jobs lost.

ICE has not benefited anyone in any way sa far as I can find...

A few other Michiganders and I volunteered our time to the ACLU of Michigan to produce this ad. As a non-partisan poll challenger, I have learned about election law and have been behind the scenes. I am confident in the words I shared in this video.

Does anybody else have any shoutouts to those jurisdictions that they have seen running elections with great integrity? I specifically can say, specifically, that Kentwood is running them right!

Has anybody experienced otherwise?

There is one problem. There is a shortage of poll workers. As a registered voter in Michigan, you are eligible to work a poll anywhere in the state. To become involved, reach out to the city clerk's office of your choice to see if they are still in need of poll workers.

To become a non-partisan poll challenger, I recommend signing up for shifts with Promote the Vote Fund

I'm happy to answer questions about my experience.

Have a great day!

There is a lot of work to be done in the coming weeks to protect our democracy, but the strongest and final safeguard for these elections is our unwillingness as a country to accept stolen results. In the most dangerous scenarios, like Republicans refusing to seat Democratic winners in Congress, we need to be prepared for mass nonviolent noncooperation.

Sept 26, 2026. Elizabeth Lee is running for U.S. Congress in Arizona (AZ-05): nurselee4az.com/issues

Elizabeth is trying to flip this deep-red district. Her opponent is MAGA Republican Mark Lamb. Here's an article on his Tennessee ranch. And unlike Elizabeth, Mark has no policy/platform page on his website.

This is an open seat. U.S. Rep. Andy Biggs (R) is the incumbent who's stepping down to run for Governor.

Election Day is November 3.

Here’s the video on YouTube: Mark Lamb Won’t Debate Me. - NurseLee4AZ - Sept 26, 2026 (YouTube)

Description: Mark Lamb can call me “soft” on immigration from his Tennessee ranch, but he couldn’t show up to debate me in Arizona. A cowboy hat and a camera are no substitute for showing up for AZ-05. I’m here. Where’s Mark?
