We are not here to debate.
We are here to dismantle.
ICE’s violence is not “unfortunate.”

This weekend — we gather to demand accountability — and to build power.

Column: What Virginia’s election teaches about power in numbers Democracy requires our participation in the sustained work between elections, the Workers Circle’s Ann Toback and the Center for Common Ground’s Andrea Miller write.

What accounts for the massive uptick in voters in VA this year?

"Thousands of volunteers and dozens of organizations did the slow, steady work of showing voters that their participation matters."

Kudos @ctr4cmnground.bsky.social! A great partner.

Supreme Court orders Texas to use 2025 map amid legal battle The ruling is a major win for the Trump administration and Texas Republicans, who engineered the map to give the GOP control of 30 of the state’s 38 congressional districts.

BREAKING: Texas can use its new, GOP friendly congressional map while a legal challenge plays out, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled, temporarily pausing a lower court ruling that had blocked the map from going into effect. www.texastribune.org/2025/12/02/t...

The Supreme Court’s Next Defining Test for Black Freedom Louisiana v. Callais is the latest case testing the Voting Rights Act.

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.
