“If everything rises and falls on you, you haven’t built legacy, you’ve built dependency.”
Leaders, read that again. Healthy leadership creates successors, not spectators.

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.
WATCH — @SenatorWarnock: “I want to speak directly to Christian leaders who carry water for Trump: why do you sit silently while he makes a mockery of the faith? He represents the opposite of everything Jesus stood for... When does your silence become complicity?"
