SCOTUS has the power to decide if our rights as voters will be protected or stripped from us. Their decision on Louisiana v. Callais has the power to affect legislatures nationwide. Stay alert of the court’s decisions. The VRA is necessary to protect all voters.

Join us in rallying against the unconstitutional partisan redistricting special session & then attend committee hearings with us to let your voice be heard! 📢
DeSantis announced the special redistricting legislative session scheduled for 4/20 has been moved to 4/28. These plans for redistricting are still illegal no matter how it’s pushed back or what it’s lumped in with. We demand a legislative session that keeps mid-decade redistricting off the agendas.
The Callais decision could impact everything up to the VRA unless we act now & advocate against discriminatory redistricting. Marginalized voters are under attack, & in a state where mid-decade redistricting is up for discussion, Florida must stand up & fight back against these legislative attacks!
Gear up to combat redistricting by joining our call TONIGHT to prepare for our rally in Tally on 4/20.

We call on the Trump administration to convince the president to not follow through with his threats. Genocide is morally reprehensible & goes directly against American values of freedom & happiness. We stand with all victims. No innocent civilians or children should pay the price for greed.

@voffund.bsky.social is calling upon state governments to ignore & disobey this unjust, illegal order & to commit to protecting the safety & security of our election from the man who attempted to overturn the 2020 election.

We mourn the loss of Coral Springs Vice Mayor Nancy Metayer-Bowen. Our hearts go out to her family & community who lost a trailblazer, advocate, representative, & friend. Nancy was a rare gift. She dedicated her life to justice & equity for disenfranchised Floridians. May she rest in power & peace.
Yesterday SCOTUS ruled that states cannot ban conversion therapy. CT has been proven ineffective & often harmful w side effects including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, & suicidal ideation. We condemn this irresponsible ruling by SCOTUS & urge citizens to speak out against the dangers of CT.
Learn about the Clean Water For All Life Act and how the “catch kits” have nothing to do with clean water but rather aim to punish pregnant people who have miscarriages and medication abortions. #AbortionIsHealthcare

Join us in calling on UF Health & Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare to stop forcing pregnant people to undergo C-sections against their will.

Two Black mothers in FL, Cherise Doyley & Brianna Bennett, were ambushed by doctors, attorneys, & judges who held emergency virtual hearings to force them to have court-ordered C-sections against their will. They went to court — while they were in labor — and had that decision stripped from them.
In tonight’s live event, The Lever convenes leaders from the No Kings coalition to reflect on what the protests have accomplished and to explore a central question: can mass protest meaningfully constrain presidential power, and what will it take to do so going forward?
