It’s always great to have President Obama’s support.

North Carolina's state legislature, as currently constituted, is totally illegitimate and completely unrepresentative of our state's actual voters.
In 2024, most North Carolinians voted for Democrats to represent them in the NC House and Senate. Democrats won outright majorities of votes in both chambers statewide.
Yet because of pervasive partisan gerrymandering, Republicans still won a supermajority in the State Senate, and are just 1 seat shy of a supermajority in the State House - all despite getting a minority of actual votes.
This fall, fight to take back our state from the corrupt men who've hijacked our state legislature.

BREAKING: Kennedy Niece Maria Shriver:
"The Kennedy Center was named after my uncle, President John F. Kennedy. It was named in his honor. He was a man who was interested in the arts, interested in culture, interested in education, language, history. He brought the arts into the White House, and he and my Aunt Jackie amplified the arts, celebrated the arts, stood up for the arts and artists.
It is beyond comprehension that this sitting president has sought to rename this great memorial dedicated to President Kennedy. It is beyond wild that he would think adding his name in front of President Kennedy’s name is acceptable. It is not."

In North Carolina, Democrats won the majority of the vote but lost the state House and Senate overwhelmingly.
Republicans gerrymander because they know they cannot win fairly.

This map says it all: 11 red, 3 blue in our 50/50 state.
A shameless power grab by North Carolina Republicans.

The pathetic legislative leaders of North Carolina haven’t even passed a budget.
And what are they busy doing? Rigging the next election for Trump.
Their priorities are clear — bend the knee to Trump, screw over North Carolina.
Remember that.

We can’t lose focus on what matters – right now, Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year’s midterm elections. This is a power grab that undermines our democracy.
Texas: Your vote matters—and so does your map. And right now, power-hungry politicians are trying to gerrymander it to silence your voices. Join @RedistrictFdn for a virtual event to learn how redistricting shapes your vote—and how you can take action.

One final piece for @BeltBorder that encapsulates a lot of what makes the region special: trials of rural communities, resilience in the face of hardship and a deep desire to see opportunity amid the struggle. (W/ @GretzingerErin)
