The Supreme Court's decision to attack the Voting Rights Act is a real threat to representation and our democracy. Congress must pass legislation to restore the protections of the VRA and ensure fair representation in government.
English
Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.
The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

I thought we “didn’t need” to open the strait? I thought NATO had to do it on their own?

Artemis II is proof that only in the United States of America can we aim for the stars and actually reach them. Efforts like these push technology and our country forward, together.

Liberals always blaming others of what liberals are guilty of. Classic strategy that they are following.

Nancy Pelosi says Trump and Republicans may try to rig vote counts in the midterms: “We have to be on guard…They may try to creep into the technology and create a false count." Un. Freakin. Real.

We can no longer tolerate a rigged tax code that enables billionaires to pay a lower effective tax rate than the average worker & corporations like Tesla & Palantir to pay ZERO in federal income taxes while making billions in profits.
Yes. The wealthy must pay their fair share.

LAST WEEK: Trump voted by mail. (Again.)
NOW: He signed an unconstitutional EO trying to give his administration the authority to control who else can.
What Trump puts on a piece of paper won’t change our free and fair elections.
