The NAACP is condemning the U.S. Supreme Court's latest decision allowing Alabama to use a congressional map previously found to be intentionally discriminatory against Black voters, warning that the ruling marks another dangerous step in the dismantling of voting rights in the state and across the country.
The Court's action follows its most recent decision in Louisiana v. Callais, which has triggered racial gerrymandering efforts across the South.

Today, the Alabama Federal Court rejected a new gerrymandered map, ruling that it was discriminatory to Black voters in the state. NAACP President and CEO @DerrickNAACP had this to say:
"We applaud the Alabama Federal Court’s ruling today, preserving Black representation. Redrawing maps to silence the voices of entire communities cannot be tolerated. It goes against the very values of democracy that our ancestors fought and died for.
Our chapters in Alabama mobilized to reject this map, and we will continue to fight across the country to protect our voice. Today’s ruling is good news, but we know it is not the end of this fight."
Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia & Biphobia 💛
