BREAKING: A federal three-judge panel struck down Louisiana’s congressional map, which contains two Black-opportunity districts as required by Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act

John,

The court’s ruling unnecessarily puts Louisianians’ right to vote in a very precarious position. This decision is a radical departure from multiple recent court decisions regarding Louisiana’s congressional map. It is so wildly out of step from settled law and recent Supreme Court precedent that the ideological nature of the decision could not be more clear. Since the Voting Rights Act was enacted, anti-democracy forces have sought to minimize its effectiveness. The fight for equal representation is both historic and ongoing. Yesterday’s decision harkens back to a dark time in our nation’s history. Undaunted, we will continue the fight for fairness and equality.

Louisiana’s current, fair maps — which gives Black Louisianians their long denied but rightful voting power — should remain in place for 2024 and for every future election. As this case proceeds, other courts must ensure that our march to justice continues, that precedent is respected and that the fundamental rights of all American citizens are upheld.
