Black voters deserve to be heard — we make up 27% of Alabama’s population, yet elect only 14% of the state’s representatives. Our democracy works best when we have fair representation. Racial discrimination in voting can’t be excused or ignored. — PolitiTweet.org

A lower court has already found that Alabama's plan violates Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which protects against racial discrimination in voting. It’s essential for the Supreme Court to uphold the VRA and require Alabama to redraw the maps fairly. https://t.co/fMw8FYlWcm — PolitiTweet.org
