[Congressman Christian D. Menefee @RepCDMenefee]

Trump’s handpicked Supreme Court is making it harder for Black communities to have their voices heard at the ballot box. The Court is dragging our country backward and opening the door to the same kind of voter suppression seen during the Jim Crow era.

This is yet another attempt by Republicans to cling to power ahead of the midterm elections.

BREAKING: The Louisiana Senate passed a disturbing anti-homeless bill that pushes homeless people into jails, forced treatment, and unpaid labor. Hours earlier, the same lawmakers voted to give themselves $1,000 to cover housing expenses, recognizing housing is too expensive.

I don't say this often. But if you or your loved ones live in TX: you must read this story from the Texas Tribune & ProPublica about flood safety. Flooding is simply part of life in TX, you ignore this information at your own risk, and hurricane season starts Monday. 🧵

[Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) @TheBlackCaucus]

In the wake of the Callais decision, Black political representation is under direct assault. Across the South, lawmakers are rushing to redraw congressional maps to dilute Black voting strength and roll back decades of progress secured through the Voting Rights Act.

Corporations that have benefited from Black consumers, Black workers, and Black communities cannot remain silent while Black political power is dismantled in plain sight.

When democracy is under attack, there is no neutral ground.

Look up the ages of the Freedom Riders. Lots of young folks. So when people are discussing whether it’s fair to ask young people to boycott attending certain schools in the Deep South over gerrymandering, realize young people were a core component of the civil rights movement.

Today marks four years since the massacre at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas shook the nation. Two teachers and 19 fourth-graders were shot and killed in their classrooms, and 17 others were injured.

Today and always, our hearts are with the survivors, the Uvalde community, and all those impacted who should have been safe at school. We’ll always work to build a safer future in their honor.
