John -- Donald Ayer served in the Bush and Reagan Administrations. Last week, he penned a scathing critique of the conservative majority on the Supreme Court.

In a NYT editorial piece, Ayer accused the Court of overstepping in a handful of its most recent rulings. The Brnovich decision is one example. He said the conservative majority’s decision to limit section 2 of the Voting Rights Act undermines that critical law.

He argues that this decision coupled with several other recent rulings shows that the Court “lacks a majority of justices with sufficient concern about the basic continuity and integrity of the law or the ability of government to function.”

Part of the reason why we’re fighting an uphill battle on redistricting is that the Court refused to weigh in and put guardrails on partisan gerrymandering in the Rucho decision.
Times like these, when even a Bush/Reagan appointee is calling the Supreme Court’s competency into question, show just how much of a fight we have ahead of us.

In Ohio, the governor, who sits on the Ohio Redistricting Commission, just voted for maps that even he admitted might not be constitutional. In Texas, the state Senate just passed a congressional map with zero competitive districts. And in North Carolina, preliminary maps are currently being drawn that crack some of the biggest counties three times at the expense of the voters there.

It’s clear that some map manipulators feel free to partisan gerrymander since the Supreme Court didn’t end the practice. And since we can’t count on a conservative Court that isn’t concerned “about the basic continuity and integrity of the law” -- we need to speak up now!
