Social Security turns 91 today! I will continue fighting to protect, strengthen, expand this critical program for the 160,000+ people in Alabama's 7th District who rely on it. Social Security is not an entitlement—it is an EARNED BENEFIT!

And in 2026, Black women are STILL only making 65 cents on the dollar.
Pay Black women. Period.

This is a five-alarm fire. Black political representation in America is under attack.

The Supreme Court just cleared the way for Alabama to revert to its 2023 congressional map, very same map that was previously struck down for intentionally discriminating against Black voters.

Alabama Dems have had enough of Republicans’ bullshit. They’re standing up against the attack on their political power.

A three-judge panel has denied a request by Alabama for a stay, saying it lacks jurisdiction in the case which has been appealed to SCOTUS.
“Quite simply, we do not have the authority to issue an order that upends Alabama’s status quo, especially in the middle of an election, while our injunction establishing that status quo is well under review in the nation’s highest court.”
Sen. Merika Coleman, M.P.A., J.D. retweeted
It's official. Republicans in the Alabama State House just passed legislation paving the way to eliminate Black representation in our state.
We need to organize, mobilize, and vote like our lives depend on it.

Black people in America need to be registered to vote, all of us. Full Fk’n Stop.
In states like Georgia, Maryland, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, turning to vote can shift outcomes in House, Senate, and gubernatorial races.
Look at Georgia. About 3.5 million Black residents live here. Roughly 2.5 million of us are eligible to vote, yet only around 1.4 million of us actually do. That leaves between 900,000 and 1.1 million eligible Black voters not participating.
Now compare that to the margins of the last two Ga: governor’s races. In 2018, the race was decided by about 54,000 votes. In 2022, about 191,000 votes. The number of eligible Black voters not participating is between 7 and 10x larger than those margins.
This isn’t about theory, it’s about MATH. If we show up consistently, outcomes change. The shift starts with registration, and it is sustained by turnout.
Register and VOTE.

I’m saddened to learn of the passing of J. Mason Davis, a towering figure in Birmingham’s civil rights history and a relentless force in the fight for justice.
As one of Birmingham’s first Black attorneys and a pioneering civic leader, Davis played a crucial role in dismantling segregation and defending those who bravely challenged injustice. His unwavering courage and legal brilliance broke down barriers and opened doors for generations of lawyers, advocates, and community leaders who followed.
May we carry forward his unshakeable commitment to equality as we continue the work he championed. Rest in power, J. Mason Davis.
