Our Executive Director Marina Jenkins (@marinakate31) responds to Callais v. Landry—the lawsuit that was filed to undo Louisiana’s fair congressional map. The outcome of this case could determine the future of Section 2 of the VRA. Stay tuned for more updates via @DemRedistrict!

Yesterday in AL, the power of fair and representative maps resonated loudly. 18 (!) primary candidates competed for the new AL-2 opportunity district, and we saw a 122% increase in voter participation vs 22. Amazing! Proud of @RedistrictFdn’s work and grateful for @EricHolder.
There is no cavalry coming. No miracle solution. No saviors. In the end, we, the American people - not any of our institutions - have to save our democracy by voting in defense of that democracy this fall. We are the cavalry. The responsibility is ours.
🚨NEW👉The NRF is supporting a group of Black voters in Louisiana who are intervening in a lawsuit that aims to dismantle the new Black-opportunity district in the state's congressional map. We are committed to fighting anti-democratic forces who remain set on reversing progress.
So much legal news…gag orders, could Trump go to jail, Trump family testifying plus rising threats on college campuses and even against a US Senator @EricHolder on all of it, @gtconway3d on what happening in this NY civil case and how all of this is impacting Trump, @JohnBrennan…
@Redistrict Might I be so bold as to kindly direct you to page 509-510 of the order. “The State cannot remedy the Section 2 violations described herein by eliminating minority opportunity districts elsewhere in the plans”
It was a pleasure to get to join @ourbodypolitic for this conversation about the state of voting rights following the Supreme Court’s June decision in our case Allen v. Milligan, which upheld the VRA, and the work that we do @DemRedistrict @allontheline @RedistrictFdn. Listen in!

Alabama has a new, fairer congressional map that gives Black voters an equal opportunity to elect a candidate of their choice. This is a historic win for voting rights and democracy, and it happened thanks to the hard work of Black voters, advocates, and organizations like…
This is a huge victory that has been a long time in the making under @EricHolder's leadership with @RedistrictFdn financially supporting and directing the litigation for a set of plaintiffs in this case since the it was first filed.

🚨 BREAKING 🚨: WE HAVE A NEW CONGRESSIONAL MAP IN ALABAMA!! With 2 Black opportunity districts, like Black Alabamans deserve!
⚖️BREAKING: A federal panel in Alabama has just adopted a #FairMap that complies with SCOTUS’ order to include a second district in which Black voters can elect their candidate of choice. This is a huge victory for voting rights. We’re beyond proud to have been part of this team.
BREAKING NEWS: 🏆ALABAMA HAS A FAIR MAP🏆 A federal three-judge panel just adopted a new, fair map—meaning Alabama will have two districts where Black voters can elect their preferred candidate. This is a victory for our democracy!!!!!
🚨BREAKING—A court in Alabama has adopted a new, fair map to replace the previous gerrymandered map, providing Black Alabamians an opportunity to elect a candidate of their choice in two districts. This is a MOMENTOUS win for Black Alabamians and for fair maps across the nation.
Alabama has a new map, y’all!! 🎉 Such an incredibly important and historic moment. It’s about damn time.

Given the AL decision and lifting of Louisiana stay happened in June, characterizing an October hearing as too hasty feels rich… 🤔 But make no mistake, we're still confident Black Louisianans will see justice ahead of 2024 elections.

Another win. Supreme Court rejects Alabama’s attempt to avoid doing what the law requires and orders - again - that the state create a second opportunity district so that black voters in Alabama can elect a Congressman of their choice. Fairness wins. cnn.com/2023/09/26/pol…
As of today — from the NY Court of Appeals — New York's Independent Redistricting Commission can get started on drawing the new congressional map in time for the 2024 elections. NYers deserve a fairer, more representative map. Let's go! 🗽 democraticredistricting.com/ndrc-time-is-n…

Guy who can’t win without cheating says what
I pushed Republican leaders in Jeff City to pass a 7-1 GOP map. Rather than fight, they compromised and now Missouri could tip the House to Democrats. As Governor, I'll be fighting for conservative principles and not the Democrats' priorities.
There is no cavalry coming. No miracle solution. No saviors. In the end, we, the American people - not any of our institutions - have to save our democracy by voting in defense of that democracy this fall. We are the cavalry. The responsibility is ours.
Special Counsel Hur report on Biden classified documents issues contains way too many gratuitous remarks and is flatly inconsistent with long standing DOJ traditions. Had this report been been subject to a normal DOJ review these remarks would undoubtedly have been excised.
🚨NEW👉The NRF is supporting a group of Black voters in Louisiana who are intervening in a lawsuit that aims to dismantle the new Black-opportunity district in the state's congressional map. We are committed to fighting anti-democratic forces who remain set on reversing progress.

The AL legislature’s remedial congressional map has been rejected by a federal court, which found that the map “perpetuates rather than corrects the Section Two violation we found.” This marks an important step forward in our fight for a fair map in AL. bit.ly/3L8ybmw
⚖️In another victory for Alabama voters, SCOTUS has rejected (with no noted dissents) an attempt by the state of AL to stop the remedial mapdrawing process taking place as a result of Allen v. Milligan – meaning the new map will move forward without delay. bit.ly/45dkFVL
