We'll get right to it. Here is what you should know:
- The 2020 Census proved that one-third of Louisiana's population is Black.
- The Louisiana Legislature had the opportunity to increase the amount of majority-minority congressional districts in Louisiana during the Redistricting Special Session earlier this year.
- Self-serving politicians refused to pass a congressional map with proportional representation of Black Louisianans.
- Governor John Bel Edwards vetoed the map because it lacked basic fairness and violates the Voting Rights Act.
- Now, the legislature is trying to override Gov. Edwards' veto to keep the unfair map.
Will you write your legislators right now to urge them to uphold Gov. Edwards' veto?
