@juddlegum.bsky.social no harm intended. As a retired healthcare provider, people need the wound care supplies to be paid for. Healing of wounds is important - it can end a life. Abuse? perhaps. And I’d like to know more but I’m just saying be careful how you shape the convo @joyannreid.bsky.social

Louisiana v. Callais threatens to gut the Voting Rights Act, the very law that was created to stop states from silencing Black voters. If the Court rules against fair maps, politicians will have even more power to draw districts that dilute Black communities’ voices. #BlackVotersMatter

Supreme Court case could grant Trump and Republicans power to trample Black voting rights for one-party rule, advocates warn

Greim is pushing to make Sec. 2 claims harder to prove. Until now, the Court has held that discriminatory voting practices can be struck down under Sec. 2 even without proof so long as their effects dilute minority voting power.

Louisiana v. Callais could strip protections for majority-Black voting districts. If Section 2 of the VRA is struck down, communities will lose political power. We are mobilizing nationwide to demand the Court protect Black voters and ensure every voice counts.
