My mom travelled to Alabama in the 60’s to register voters. I will go to Louisiana and do the same!
Free and fair voting is integral to democracy.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Today’s Supreme Court decision effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act, freeing state legislatures to gerrymander legislative districts to systematically dilute and weaken the voting power of racial minorities - so long as they do it under the guise of “partisanship” rather than explicit “racial bias.” And it serves as just one more example of how a majority of the current Court seems intent on abandoning its vital role in ensuring equal participation in our democracy and protecting the rights of minority groups against majority overreach.

The good news is that such setbacks can be overcome. But that will only happen if citizens across the country who cherish our democratic ideals continue to mobilize and vote in record numbers - not just in the upcoming midterms or in high profile races, but in every election and every level.

@CBSNews I ask this most seriously, are you high? People like the Kirks represent divisiveness. Sure, anyone can be included but must also be Christian. At least that is my understanding of how this sort of “inclusion “ works.

@cenkuygur I’m a TYT fan,decidedly Dem/progressive. I watched TYT commentary on the AZ gubernatorial debate. It was clever, funny until I heard “mental” used in a way akin to making a racial/sexual slur, in my opinion. It was insensitive. Now you know. Do better! #endthestigma

@howardjones @thebirchmere A fabulous evening! Once every 37 years is simply not enough!
