Alabama Values Progress

Janai Nelson of LDF warns that a right can remain on the books and still become harder to enforce. After Louisiana v. Callais, State Voting Rights Acts could offer another path to challenge discrimination. #VotingRights #CommunityPower

Voting rights shape local decisions, from cities to Congress. At Shop Sessionz, AVP’s Rhyane Wagner connects election prep to community power. Before November 3, check your registration and polling place at dothevotething.org. #VotingRights

Rep. Jonathan Jackson points to what could come next. Redistricting debates may extend beyond Congress to state legislatures, counties, cities, and school boards. The stakes reach Black, Spanish speaking, and other communities of color. #VotingRights #Redistricting

Alabama’s future is shaped by decisions on voting rights, development, and community safety. From a $33B data center to voting access and poll monitoring, our voices and democracy matter. Stay informed. Stay engaged. Our voices and democracy matter. #ICYMI #CommunityPower

Janai Nelson explains why redistricting decisions matter. *Allen v. Milligan* affirmed protections for Black voters under the VRA. *Louisiana v. Callais* changed the legal landscape. These decisions shape voting power and representation. #VotingRights #Redistricting

Black communities need no permission to prove their power. From polls to sports, Black people keep making history on their own terms. Will decision makers recognize and respect that power? #WordUpWednesday #BlackExcellence #VotingRights #CommunityPower #AlabamaValuesProgress

Janai Nelson of LDF warns that decisions can be stretched beyond what they actually say, while DEIA is being used to justify stepping back from civil rights obligations. Knowing what the law requires is part of holding power accountable. #CivilRights #Accountability

“Race neutral” doesn’t make an unfair system fair. Calling biased systems neutral doesn’t erase the harm or the barriers they create. Check your registration and polling location at dothevotething.org. Make your plan to vote. #VotingRights #Accountability
