🚨NEW: Trump’s team plans to use a fake “national emergency” as a cover to hijack elections. This is THE wake-up call. While they try to distract us with crumbling White House walls, they’re demolishing democracy.

🚨Trump’s team is plotting to declare a fake "national emergency" to hijack elections. One operative says they can “take steps without Congress” and mandate state election rules. Independent, state-run elections are the last firewall between democracy and authoritarian rule.

We’ve done a deep dive into this case! This new post breaks down the legal fight for our democracy. Check out this must-read in collaboration with @staceyabrams.com Let us know your thoughts⬇️

🚨WOW. A unanimous per curiam (meaning no named author) panel of the 7th Circuit, made up of a Bush appointee, an Obama appointee, and a Trump appointee, decline to step in and block a lower court order barring the deployment of the National Guard in Chicago!

Louisiana v. Callais is not just one case. It is the next step in a long-term Republican strategy to lock in political power through redistricting, the courts, and control of the law itself. Here’s how we got here ⬇️

NEW: Tomorrow the Supreme Court will rehear a case that could let the GOP grab 19 new, safe U.S. House seats by gutting Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. I wrote for @slate.com about how the far-right justices seem ready to help Republicans lock in one party rule for a generation.

On October 15, the Supreme Court will rehear Louisiana v. Callais could allow Republicans to draw 27 new safe GOP U.S. House seats. Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act has been the cornerstone of fair representation in America. It stops politicians from rigging maps to silence voters of color.

NEW: Next week, the Supreme Court will re-hear a case that could allow Republicans to create 19 new safe U.S. House seats by gutting what’s left of the Voting Rights Act. The far-right majority may finally be ready to finish the VRA off. Here’s what’s at stake. ⬇️

Louisiana drew a new majority-Black congressional district to fix racial discrimination in its map. Non-Black voters sued, crying discrimination. October 15: The Supreme Court will decide if considering race to fix discrimination in political maps can be called discrimination.

📺 WATCH: Next week, the Supreme Court will decide if considering race to fix racial discrimination in redistricting can be called “discrimination.” @joycewhitevance.bsky.social and Dr. Carol Anderson explain the attack on the central safeguard against racially discriminatory redistricting.

And we’re back! But this time, we’re talking elections. Join us on Wednesday, 10/15 at 7 PM for an engaging discussion ft @laurengw.bsky.social and @marcelias.bsky.social. Together, they’ll dive into how we can all take part in building a stronger democracy. RSVP here: tr.ee/h6js1mavu7

🚨 Georgia is already feeling the impacts of the federal shutdown. The shutdown threatens our economy and small businesses, public health, research, travel, and much more. This isn’t just politics, it’s real life.

Yesterday, the Supreme Court issued a chilling order allowing Trump’s masked federal agents to continue racially-targeted immigration raids. Fair Fight CEO @laurengw.bsky.social calls out the Court for enabling a policy "beyond stop-and-frisk. It’s stop-and-abduct."

NEW: Trump announced a ban on mail voting, 3 days after Putin told him to. Besides being unconstitutional, it’s humiliating – the president parroting a foreign autocrat’s orders like a lackey. The goal: block Americans from choosing our leaders and having a say in our future.

The recent attempt by Georgia Republicans to fine—and even jail—Democratic election board members for refusing to seat election deniers is a dangerous escalation of political games that undermine our democracy. Those who don't respect our elections can't be trusted to oversee them.

🚨🚨🚨🚨 If you are a Fulton County resident, we need your support! We urge you all to arrive at the Fulton County Government Center by 9:30 a.m. tomorrow to attend the BOC meeting and express opposition to the nominations!

A statement from our CEO.

NEW: Today, the Republican Party is pushing a judge to jail Fulton County commissioners. Why? They refuse to vote to appoint two far-right election denial activists to the Fulton County Election Board who have a history of undermining elections. Here's what they had to say – video thread. ⬇️

Let’s be real: this is embarrassing. The U.S. President is following Putin’s script – like a puppet being worked by strings. Trump isn’t protecting democracy, he’s copy & pasting Putin’s playbook to sabotage it.

VIDEO: Marc Elias joined The Weeknight Monday to discuss Trump’s plans to eliminate mail-in ballots, the escalating deployment of the National Guard in D.C., quorum-breaking House Democrats’ return to Texas and more. Watch below👇 youtu.be/y9W_VPISlKY

Today we went live with @staceyabrams.com on @fairfightaction.bsky.social's Rights & Insights to talk about Trump’s new executive order to take over elections. It’s part of a coordinated far-right push into authoritarianism. Stacey closed by sharing what keeps her going in this fight.

Just like Texas Congressional takeover, this next EO is part of a larger scheme to remake elections in an autocratic model. This is not a normal midterm.

What is happening now is a pressure test for democracy. The U.S. Voting Rights Act is under attack across the country. It must be defended and protected. This isn’t just a partisan fight. It’s an existential threat to democracy. #fightthetrumptakeover

🚨🚨PURGE WARNING: Many voters are purged after being placed on the inactive list and not voting in two federal elections.

The Supreme Court isn’t just dismantling the Voting Rights Act. They'll hear a case this fall that could block Americans from even getting into court to defend their voting rights. We’re inching toward a time when people can’t access justice – or easily vote.

let’s break it down again 🙂‍↔️

Yesterday marked 60 years since the Voting Rights Act became law. What does Kendrick Lamar have to do with the Voting Rights Act? Fair Fight Action’s Chief Legal Counsel breaks it down.

We are committed to strengthening protections for eligible Georgia voters and upholding the legacy of Congressman Lewis, join us.

Did you know parts of the Voting Rights Act that protect our right to vote have been gutted? This has let voter suppression laws spread across America. Fair Fight Action’s Chief Legal Counsel joined @wabe.org to break it down.

NEW: 60 years after the Voting Rights Act was signed into law, its protections are being gutted. @staceyabrams.com breaks down how we got here, what’s at stake, and how we fight back.

In Georgia and across America, the Voting Rights Act changed everything. It stopped some states and local governments from creating rules to block Black voters. It made sure federal eyes were watching. It’s still protecting your right to be heard, let’s push for a restored Voting Rights Act!

Don’t get purged. Deadline to act: August 20, 2025! Respond to any mail from the Secretary of State and call your county elections office now.

You’re invited to the next installment of our Fair Fight: Together virtual conversation series — this time, we’re talking immigration. Join us for a powerful discussion featuring leading voices in the fight for immigrant justice and civil rights! bit.ly/FairFightTog...

Democracy thrives on participation but only if it's accessible to all.

Brian Kemp, Georgia's Secretary of State at the time, sent armed investigators door to door to arrest the 12 Black residents. They were charged with a combined 120 felonies. The case took years. All were acquitted or never tried due to lack of evidence. Read the full piece. ⬇️

12 Black educators and organizers were arrested in a rural South Georgia town. Their crime? Helping neighbors vote. This is the story of the Quitman 10+2 – and the voter suppression playbook it inspired.

The GOP captured power by building a local machine focused on winning school boards, county commissions, and state legislatures. @amandalitman.bsky.social wrote about the importance of local races for Rights & Insights, our new (free) Substack.

Five years ago, we lost John Lewis. Now MAGA extremists are pushing the SAVE Act – a new version of old Jim Crow tactics. False claims. Weaponized bureaucracy. Voter suppression. We have to stop it. For John. For our democracy.
