If you assume that additional majority-minority districts in Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, & 1–2 other states would’ve been safe Democratic seats, then today’s #SCOTUS ruling strongly suggests that the Court’s 2022 shadow docket stays wrongly gave Republicans control of the House.

March was the 529th straight month hotter than the 20th century average. If you're younger than 44, you've never seen a cooler-than-normal month washingtonpost.com/weather/2…

Earth has second-warmest March even before arrival of planet-heating El Niño

It was the 529th consecutive month to feature temperatures above the 20th century average

Great start, Jessica. And good for you! I'd ditch "guaranteed herein" as superfluous. And fix the Roman numeral - XXVIII. If you want to have a brainstorming session with Aziza and others to refine draft and work on sending it out, count me in.

It's time to start thinking about a 28th amendment. I'll start. "XVIII: A free and equal people, being necessary for a republican form of government guaranteed herein, the right of pregnant people to terminate or retain their pregnancies shall not be abridged."
