Save Our Votes: SCOTUS, the Attack on Voting Rights & Erosion of Our Democracy w/ CC

Right now, the Supreme Court is preparing to decide Louisiana v. Callais – a case that directly threatens what’s left of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, our most important federal safeguard against racist voter suppression.

This Supreme Court decision could take away a core American freedom: the right to fair and equal representation.

This case is part of a broader push to weaken protections that have stopped politicians from drawing voting maps designed to silence Black, Latino, Asian American and Pacific Islander, and Native communities.

If these protections are weakened, politicians across the country would be given a green light to rig elections by manipulating maps, making it harder for communities of color, especially across the South, to choose leaders who reflect their needs and fight for their families; from affordable housing and health care to good jobs and strong public schools, there will be immediate harms people will face.

That’s why we’re hosting a virtual call to break down what’s at stake and how people can act. This call will prepare volunteers, advocates, and concerned community members to stand up for fair representation, defend our freedom to vote, and mobilize at the local, state, and federal levels. Our voices matter, and together, we can make sure they are heard.

What the Court decides will shape representation for years to come. The stakes are high, and a bad ruling could immediately threaten voters’ voices in this year’s midterms.

On this call, you’ll:

--Get a clear, accessible breakdown of this Supreme Court case and what it means for voters nationwide

--Hear directly from Common Cause experts and organizers about what you can do to help

--Connect with others who care deeply about fair maps, equal representation, and multiracial democracy

Whether you’re a longtime voting rights advocate or just starting to get involved, this call will help you get informed, get prepared, and get connected to what comes next.
