BREAKING: The Senate confirmed Judge Nancy Maldonado — the first Latino/a judge to serve on the 7th Circuit.
Her historic confirmation brings critically important civil rights experience to the appellate bench and long overdue representation to this court.civilrights.org/2024/07/08/t…

We shouldn't praise felony disenfranchisement—it's a stain on our democracy.
These laws disproportionately impact Black and Latino voters, perpetuating systemic inequalities and undermining the principle of equal representation.

It is time to constitutionalize voting rights. It's been 59 years since the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and we are still having to address voter suppression and deliberate attacks on voting rights. #LetsGetItDone #VotingRights

Jan 6, 2021 was an attack on democracy.
When we’re talking about an insurrection & attempts to overturn the election, we have to be CLEAR that what this is really about is the attempts to silence and overturn Black votes following the Presidential Election and GA Senate Runoff.

A federal judge rules Georgia lawmakers “fully complied” with his order to redraw Georgia congressional and legislative maps to include more majority-Black districts, in a major victory for Georgia Republicans. #gapol documentcloud.org/documents/… – at Honduras

Georgia General Assembly Redistricting Special Session Ends

NEW: Georgia Republican legislators passed a new congressional map Thursday that protects their party’s dominance in the U.S. House and might violate a federal judge’s order requiring an additional majority-Black district. ajc-news.vercel.app/ajc.com/…

MAJOR REDISTRICTING UPDATE: Federal judge Steve Jones has set a December 20th hearing to consider whether newly redrawn lines for Georgia's congressional and legislative districts comply with the federal Voting Rights Act.
He struck down the current lines in October. #gapol

In October, a federal court struck down Georgia’s maps in violation of Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. Judge Jones called for a remedy through the addition of one majority Black congressional district and seven majority Black legislative districts. georgiarecorder.com/2023/10/…
