It is highly probable that the #SupremeCourt will decide to dismantle the remaining parts of Section 2 of the #VotingRightsAct, which would eliminate almost half of the black representation in the southern states. Everything occurring at this moment was detailed by rolandsmartin in his book "White Fear." If there...

The Supreme Court is threatening to strike down Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, the provision that guarantees Black Americans an equal opportunity to elect candidates of their choice. The loss of Section 2 would mark the gravest collapse of Black representation in Congress since the end of Reconstruction and the rise of Jim Crow. Before the Voting Rights Act, most of the South went nearly a century without electing a single Black representative.

The Supreme Court ruling gutting the Voting Rights Act–is a profound hypocrisy and a heartbreaking step backward for voting rights in America. It strips political power and representation from Black & Brown communities. The Voting Rights Act is one of the most sacred achievements in our nation’s history.This is fundamentally wrong. We will not go backwards. We will fight forward together.

The gutting of the Voting Rights Act is a deliberate attempt to undermine Black voting power. It’s infuriating and wrong. We must show up strong in November to take back the House, stop the SAVE Act and instead, finally pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act.

The Supreme Court gutted Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, allowing states to now systematically dilute the power of Black and Brown voters through gerrymandering. This is discriminatory and echoes back to the racist history of this country. We cannot give up on this fight.

.Kamala Harris: “the Supreme Court is going to revisit the issue of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which still gives us the ability to challenge voting laws that are RACIST in intent and that target specific communities to suppress their vote.” this was early this year. SHE KNEW.

🚨 Josh Hammer reveals how Section 2 within The Voting Rights Act was sneakily used to justify racial gerrymandering: "HERE'S THE CATCH, for Decades, politicians interpreted [section 2 of The Voting Rights Act] as a carte blanche license to create majority-minority districts which are essentially black-majority districts within largely white conservative states..." "When interpreted in that way, it runs blatantly afoul of the 14th AMENDMENT!" and Josh reveals THE MOST IMPORTANT OUTCOME from the SCOTUS ruling: "There's a real enticing opportunity for conservative legal teams to go on the offense and start SUING states if they don't get rid of these majority-minority districts" To sum it up: Republicans will come out ahead of this battle. 💪🇺🇸

Yesterday, the Supreme Court's conservative majority did something that voting rights advocates have feared for years: they weakened Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, one of the last major pillars of 60 years of civil rights progress. Section 2 was how we ensured Black, Latino, and other minority communities had a real shot at electing representatives who reflect their priorities. Now, to challenge a discriminatory map, you have to prove intentional discrimination. That is an almost impossible bar to clear. The Congressional Black Caucus could lose 30% of its membership as a direct result. Within hours of the decision, Republicans in Florida, Louisiana, Tennessee, South Carolina, Georgia, and Mississippi are already having conversations about redrawing maps. Partisan gerrymandering was already out of control. This decision just took the guardrails off completely. We have to pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and establish independent redistricting commissions nationwide, and we need to do it now.

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: “Tonight, we are following a number of developing stories very much about how RADICAL this moment is in our country right now. Just in the last hour we, for example, have had important breaking news out of the United States Supreme Court. The court’s conservative majority has GRANTED an emergency request from the state of Alabama to discriminate against Black voters, to allow the state of Alabama to use a Republican backed map that deliberately eliminates one of the state’s two majority Black districts. This, in term of electoral politics, will almost certainly GAIN Republicans another House seat. It will further reduce Black representation in Congress. This of course comes in the wake of the high court gutting the Voting Rights Act.”

STOP PLAYING GAMES WITH BLACK PEOPLE, AND BLACK PEOPLE STOP ALLOWING THESE GAMES TO BE PLAYED WITH YOU!!! thedefiantlawyers an actual civil rights attorney provides a detailed analysis of how Democrats secured the Voting Rights Act (VRA) for Black Americans. However, the GOP undermined it with the appointment of three justices by #Trump. Additionally, he explains how certain pro-Black impostors contribute to this issue by discouraging Black individuals from voting or urging them to support Trump. And here we are: trump has now instructed his DOJ to target #Black and #Latino-majority #voting districts across the country — using the #SupremeCourt’s recent decision gutting the #VotingRightsAct as a legal weapon.

As one of the few Representatives left who experienced segregation as a young girl in an all-Black elementary school, I took to the House floor to deliver a message in light of the Supreme Court's gutting of the Voting Rights Act. We will not go back.

Kamala Harris: "We have to be honest about issues like xenophobia, racism, homophobia and sexism. I'm very concerned that the Supreme Court is going to revisit the issue of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which basically still gives us the ability to challenge voting laws that are racist in intent, that target specific communities to suppress their vote. And it should not have to fall on the people who have been the target of voter suppression to be the only ones talking about it."

The Democratic Party, Gavin Newsom, JB Pritzker, and everyone else in safe blue states — pull up. If you’re serious about fighting Trump but ignoring Louisiana, we aren’t watching the same plays. In October, the Supreme Court will hear a case from here that could gut the Voting Rights Act and clear the way to end Black political power everywhere in America. Kevin Roberts, born and raised in Lafayette, built his foundation studying slavery in Louisiana and now runs The Heritage Foundation — the architect of Project 2025. Mike Johnson and Steve Scalise, both from Louisiana, run the U.S. House and are pushing that same agenda. Now Louisiana’s Attorney General has filed a brief asking the Court to strike down Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. If she succeeds, it could wipe out half the Congressional Black Caucus, erase Black legislative seats, and dismantle Black representation even in majority-Black cities — not back to 1964, but to 1877 at the end of Reconstruction. The Democratic Party should be camped out in Louisiana — not doing pit stops to check boxes. Every state isn’t shaping the nation the way Louisiana is. Ignoring Louisiana is how we got here. Maybe now somebody’s ready to listen. Share this so others know what’s at stake.

The Supreme Court today continued its assault on the Voting Rights Act by effectively eliminating a Black congressional district in Louisiana. It’s part of a pattern called “white rage.” Every time Black people make progress, white people try to tear it down.

Ossoff says the Supreme Court “gutted” the Voting Rights Act. FALSE. The Voting Rights Act still stands. Section 2 still stands. Democrats want Americans divided by race. I believe voters should choose the best candidate. Period. I was the only Black candidate in my last Republican primary. I won without a runoff. Why? Because voters judged me by the content of my character, NOT by the color of my skin. I’m the descendant of a slave, living the American Dream and serving in Congress. America has come too far to let Democrats drag us backward.
