The #Hawaii America 250 Commission has set July 8, 2026, for Americans around the world to read the Declaration of Independence simultaneously, across all time zones.

Just as the Declaration of Independence was first read to the people on July 8, 1776, now, 250 years later, Americans worldwide can read the Declaration of Independence together.
A federal court in Boston recently heard arguments in @AARO, @US_Vote, other plaintiffs' lawsuit challenging @realdonaldTrump Mar 31 Executive Order about mail-in voting. We argue the EO violates Constitution and federal law and risks disenfranchisement of eligible voters.

@AARO statement:
“For many Americans living abroad, voting by mail isn’t a preference, it’s the only option. President Trump’s unlawful executive order creates unnecessary complications and threatens to shut many overseas voters out of our democracy altogether.
