Due to expected weather emergencies and ongoing flood warnings in the area, we are postponing A Legacy of Leadership: 20 Years of LAWbound®. We’ll be in touch within the next week with a new date. Thank you for your understanding, and please stay safe.

Far-right groups like AFL, WILL, PLF & Consovoy say white men face “reverse discrimination.” But their leadership is nearly all white men. We just urged the EEOC to investigate them for the very bias they claim to oppose.

We are facing the most brazen rollback of civil rights in generations. The same forces that used violence against John Lewis and are back, with billionaires’ backers and authoritarian ambition. Join us July 17 because #GoodTroubleLivesOn social.demcast.com/s/FuPSfHkz

Senate Republicans thought they could sneak that messy anti-civil rights bill through overnight? Not on our watch. Let’s ruin their group chat vibes. A YES vote on the Big “Beautiful” Bill? Embarrassing. Text RESIST to 24284 and make some noise!
