There’s a new tool out to measure partisan gerrymandering. It’s called PlanScore.org; it’s free to use, and it contains the largest set of map data ever assembled, going back to the 1970s. This will be a great tool to use to fight for #FairMapsForAll
Join us this week for the Black Women Leaders and Allies Voting Rights Call to Action Week! We start tomorrow by taking over social media and participating in the #FreedomtoVote Twitter Storm. Learn more and join in at blackwomentakeaction.org. #BlackWomenTakeAction
If we want #FairDistricts, we HAVE to show up and show out. Learn what that takes and how to TELL YOUR STORY at public redistricting hearings; fight for fair votes, just representation, and equitable resourcing at an online training session tomorrow: faircount.co/3gJ4Os4

Most voters don’t pay a lot of attention to the redrawing of political maps every 10 years. That’s just the way legislators like it.

@matt_barnum So let me get this straight. Ruby Bridges at age 6 experiences hostile crowds of white people screaming at her. But it's too traumatic for kids her age to learn about what she went through?
Look: Getting anything big done in Washington is like rolling a rock up a hill. When it comes to climate change, or child care, Republicans keep kicking the rock back down. But I’m hopeful, because Democrats have the American people on our side—and we’re going up that hill.

Doing nothing in the face of voter suppression is a green light for anti-democratic behavior. This fight has just begun.
Zero Senate Republicans voted to advance legislation that would stop the biggest attack on voting rights since Jim Crow. Remember that the next time they tweet MLK quotes to "commemorate his legacy".
How are we supposed to compromise with a party that's more concerned with protecting insurrectionists than protecting our democracy? It's time for certain Democratic Senators to realize that there is no bipartisan deal to be made when it comes to saving our democracy.
We can’t be discouraged by temporary setbacks. It’s been a long march for voting rights, and we are just the latest to take up the mantle. Tomorrow we put our shoes on and get back to work.
Today is a good day to pass federal voting rights legislation.
Unanimous. Let's keep the same energy for the: • George Floyd Bill • Emmett Till Anti Lynching Bill • Reparations Bill Do the work. cnn.com/2021/06/15/pol… #Juneteenthholiday #Juneteenth
This #Juneteenth, we remember and celebrate the emancipation of African Americans who had been enslaved in the United States. This day represents freedom, hope and reflection on the progress we have made and how much more we must accomplish for racial equality and social justice.
Manchin calling efforts to protect the right to vote “partisan voting legislation” while de facto embracing GOP voter suppression laws is one of the most offensives uses of political language I’ve ever seen.
Once your right to vote is compromised, the hope of working in bipartisan fashion with the people who deprived you of it is a hollow shell.
