The Supreme Court has turbocharged the redistricting battles.
"What we're really going to see is a state of perpetual redistricting. With each election cycle, if one party benefits, they will take that power and use it," says @markpgaber.

NEWS: Tonight we sued to block Utah from placing the Legislature's proposed constitutional amendment to eliminate voters' constitutional right to alter their government on the November 2024 ballot, because of the Orwellian, deceptive ballot language. #utpol

Campaign Legal Center condemns today’s shocking act of violence against former President Trump. Our democracy depends on every American rejecting all forms of political violence. Tragic events like today’s shooting in Pennsylvania should never happen – not now, not ever.

To have two transformative gene therapy approvals for the #sicklecelldisease community, after nearly a century of underinvestment, is truly remarkable. bluebird bio has been working towards this moment for nearly a decade and recognizes that these approvals would not be possible without the determination, insight, and partnership of the sickle cell warriors and their loved ones, who have fought tirelessly and bravely for so many years.
Members of the flock share what this watershed moment means to them.

VICTORY: A #Kansas district court has ruled that the state’s recently enacted congressional map constituted a partisan #gerrymander and intentionally diluted the voting power of racial minorities.
Kansas voters of all parties and races deserve #FairMaps.

#NorthCarolina’s congressional and state legislative redistricting plans are egregious partisan gerrymanders that violate North Carolina’s constitution. They are blatant examples of politicians drawing maps to pick their voters. North Carolina voters deserve #FairMaps #ncpol
Breaking: NC maps won't be struck down for partisan gerrymandering. A massive win for the GOP--if the ruling is upheld on appeal #ncpol #ncga newsobserver.com/news/politi…

If Trump lawyer Michael van der Veen seems out of place, it’s not just because he’s new to the case. His firm focuses on car accidents and slip and fall injuries. Here’s one of his radio ads.

Jaime Herrera Beutler says Kevin McCarthy told her that Trump blamed Antifa for January 6th and said the rioters were “more upset” about the election than McCarthy.
She ends by calling on Trump aides to confirm details: “If you have something to add here, now would be the time.”

Any elected official who incites mob violence as part of a campaign to subvert our democracy is unfit to hold public office in the future. The outcome of this week's impeachment trial should be a lifetime ban on Trump holding federal office. My statement:
