How can a duly-elected representative be kept from being sworn in and seated? This delay is unacceptable—our democracy deserves accountability, not obstruction.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.
The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

This case could open the door to extreme gerrymandering, letting politicians choose their voters instead of the other way around.

That’s not democracy, it’s manipulation. If voting maps can be drawn without limits, fair representation becomes impossible.

Language like this isn’t just offensive — it’s dangerous. When those in political spaces normalize hate and mockery, it corrodes our democracy and devalues our shared humanity.

The Supreme Court could gut Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act — a move that would strip away key protections against racial gerrymandering and weaken voters’ power nationwide. What happens in Louisiana will shape who gets heard in our democracy.

A Supreme Court decision could gut a core protection of the Voting Rights Act—one that safeguards fair representation for communities of color. What’s at stake isn’t just the next election, but the balance of power for generations.
