I’m pretty sure he signed the law in question as governor in 2020.

Mississippi Showed Up Today! NO JIM CROW MAPS

On its own, SCOTUS issued an extraordinary order that may dilute Black voting power in MS. This is wrong, this is heartbreaking, but at this point, it is expected. At its base, the Court’s order reasons that Black Mississippians may enjoy too much political power.

Thought the article would at least address Mississippi. Nope. Just ignored it. Also, Black people like having representation in state and local government. Not just congress.

The Trump GOP is trying hard to replicate Mississippi style gov. Tax dollars go to keep people in line and benefit supporters. Unpopularity doesn’t matter because you convince your voters to prioritize the fight against the “others” instead of policy concerns.

If my grandma was raging like this in the middle of the night…

BREAKING: We're suing Louisiana officials for suspending the state's primary election after voting has already begun. On the heels of a Supreme Court decision that eviscerated protections for voters of color, elected officials jumped at the chance to disenfranchise people - we won't allow it.

Trump’s immigration policies aren’t just targeting criminals — they’re impacting our neighbors, coworkers, and friends. These stories matter. Watch Joseph’s full story: https://bit.ly/4cSI9p5

I am unspeakably angry about this turnout gap figure, and it gives insight into the whole ballgame for gutting the VRA. Alito points out that Black turnout exceeded White turnout twice in 5 elections. The argument is garbage 1/x

The Callais decision should have no bearing on our Mississippi State Supreme Court district challenge. We urge the Court to proceed with a tailored and balanced remedy. Find everything you need to know about Callais at the link below! https://www.aclu-ms.org/news/we-have-been-here-before/

BREAKING! The Supreme Court's ruling in Callais has eliminated a key provision of the Voting Rights Act. Will this affect our Supreme Court District map challenge? Swipe to learn more! Read our full statement below. https://bit.ly/4t3BvCs

We’re in Aberdeen fighting for fair Supreme Court maps. The court ruled the current lines are discriminatory, we’re pushing for new maps now.

The Governor of Mississippi will bring the MSLeg in for a special session to take place 3 weeks after the Callais decision is announced. The call is for the msleg to redraw the state’s SupCt districts to comply with a federal court’s order to bring them into compliance with the VRA.

Republican legislators across the country are just like this with so many government programs.

one of many reasons i will never accept abandoning my trans siblings or the broader queer community for the purposes of "a bigger tent"

SB 2114 is just two signatures away from the governor’s desk. The bill would require local agencies to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement and could expose Mississippi taxpayers to costly lawsuits. Call the Capitol switchboard at (601) 359-3770 and urge lawmakers to oppose SB 2114.

A federal court ruled Mississippi’s Supreme Court district maps dilute the voting strength of Black voters. Lawmakers got time to redraw the maps, but the process is happening behind closed doors. Mississippians deserve fair maps and transparency. Read our full statement: https://bit.ly/4s3XGrW

The best word to describe MS's legislative process is INSANE. I have failed at explaining to our national office colleagues, how it's possible for handful of lawmakers to meet privately to redraw the state's sup ct districts, but refuse to allow anyone, including other legislators, to see the map.

Judge ponders lawsuit that says DeSoto County political map dilutes Black voting strength A DeSoto County redistricting lawsuit pending in federal court says that the district map drawn to elect supervisors and other county officials is not fair to Black voters.

great to see a Euro saying this. There's no appeasing Trump. If you kiss his ass, he knows you're a mark and he will be back for more.

He skin is painted the color of a character on the Simpsons

Only Congress has the constitutional power to authorize war. Yet, the Trump administration is once again taking unilateral and reckless military action against Iran, putting both servicemembers and civilians in danger. This is unconstitutional.

OMG

the president of the united states sharing blatantly racist AI posts in the middle of the night is clear indication that that person is both demented and bigoted. And clearly, it should lead to Trump's removal from an office of such importance. We wouldn't allow this person to drive a public bus!

She moved TOWARD him. Went right at him. She’s braver and stronger than every single MFer in power right now. Every single MFer playing dress-up in an ICE costume. Every single MFer who would call her less than or inferior.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

Rep. Bennie Thompson demands the Senate vote against CBP and ICE funding and for the House to immediately take up the impeachment of Kristi Noem.

They murder a man in cold blood and wait around to watch him die. There is no hell hot enough. Abolish DHS. Impeach, convict, remove. Trials as soon as possible.

BREAKING: We filed a lawsuit in Rankin County, Mississippi, seeking public records from the district attorney’s office on their response to systemic police misconduct.
