We’ve fought for these rights before and we’ll do it again. The Supreme Court’s six conservative justices just gutted the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Allowing states like Texas to roll back 60 years of progress and use racial gerrymandering to silence Black and Brown communities. We must work to pass new voting rights protections and reform this Court.

Trump on White Nationalists: “very fine people” Trump on a Black member of Congress: “thug” Not even dog whistles at this point. Outright racism.

NEWS: I introduced my first bill in Congress.  The SET Act will create a deadline for Governors to complete special elections when there’s a vacancy, so no one goes without representation like TX-18 did for 334 days.  Let’s pass it.

Auditioning for the Supreme Court.

.@PabloReports: There's been a lot of talk how there won't be any Black Republican members in the new term. What do you make of that? Hunt: Nothing. I don't understand how that's relevant. I don't care how many Black people are here.

SCOTUS’s Callais decision will have tragic effects, enabling more racist gerrymandering in any state controlled by Republicans too weak to stand up to Trump.  Americans deserve national redistricting reform and SCOTUS reform. Now.

If that’s not enough, what is? The answer under today’s ruling is basically nothing unless your legislators are as reckless with their racism as the Republicans in North Carolina. The standard is designed to be unreachable.

SCOTUS’s Callais decision is out.  SCOTUS just made it nearly impossible to prove racial gerrymandering. States can now draw racist maps, call it partisan politics, and walk free.  Here’s what that actually looks like. 🧵

I'm proud to have the endorsement of Harris County Commissioner @LesleyBrionesTX. As the first woman to lead Precinct 4, I've watched her deliver on flood mitigation, public safety, and economic opportunity for over a million Harris County residents. Together, we can continue fighting to make Houston the best place to live and raise a family in the country.
