Two weeks ago, the Supreme Court’s decision in Louisiana v. Callais eviscerated Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act (VRA) and opened the floodgates to racist gerrymandering across the country. This was the culmination of a decades-long Republican project to dismantle the VRA and erase minority representation across broad swaths of the country.
After winning the battle in the courts, Republicans are moving quickly to implement the ruling and carve up majority Black and brown districts. State legislatures have already redrawn or are in the process of redrawing legislative maps for Tennessee, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama.
Black and brown voters in these states are seeing the immediate impact of Callais, but the ruling threatens voting rights everywhere. Every one of us across the country will have a role to play in the fight to secure our rights -- just like generations that came before us.
This Saturday, we’re joining Black-led civil and voting rights organizations for a national day of action, including a solidarity rally at the state capitol in Columbus.
With the legal barriers to racist gerrymandering torn down, it’s up to us to use our organizing power to defend and reclaim the sacred rights those before us bled and died for.
Sign up and learn how you can join the national day of action in Columbus.
Reclaiming our constitutional rights will not be easy. But when we organize together, we cannot be stopped, and we will win the fight for a real democracy where all of our rights are protected.
