[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.

Today we celebrate the life of a phenomenal mentor, friend, colleague, and one of the most extraordinary civil rights leaders of our time. Hazel Dukes, your unwavering dedication and unrelenting passion will be deeply missed. Thank you for being a shining beacon of hope and a tireless champion for justice. A bigger thank you for your invaluable support, guidance, and generous heart. Your legacy will live on and continue to inspire generations to come.

I am so proud to be surrounded by a team of stong women leaders who are in the fight for civil rights and social justice. The fight has always been led by women, and we need women in the fight now more than ever. Happy womens history month! Lets get busy!

HOT OFF THE PRESS!🔥

Today I’m thrilled to announce that the @latimesopinion has endorsed our people-powered campaign.

What a long way we’ve come. From our small but mighty crew to our 250+ army of volunteers, we truly are the little campaign that could.

Trump once called for the death penalty for the Central Park 5, a group exonerated after being wrongfully convicted for a 1989 rape.

NYC councilman Yusef Salaam, one of those 5, confronted Trump in the spin room last night.

@KyraPhillips discusses with NAACP's Derrick Johnson.

[Joe Biden @JoeBiden]

America got to see tonight the leader I’ve been proud to work alongside for three and a half years. Wasn’t even close. VP Harris proved she’s the best choice to lead our nation forward. We’re not going back.

[NAACP @NAACP]

And for the record, Trump knows all about #Project2025.

Let's fight, advocate, and VOTE to ensure this harmful agenda does NOT become our reality: https://t.co/9phK3EJSM3

For the record: You cannot have an abortion in the 9th month. You cannot have an abortion after birth. If we didn’t keep banning books, maybe we wouldn’t have to clear that up. #Debate2024

Historic.
