SUPREME COURT DRAGS NATION BACKWARD WITH GERRYMANDERING DECISION

SAN FRANCISCO, CA (May 23, 2024) – Today, the Supreme Court ruled in Alexander v. NAACP that racial gerrymandering is acceptable leading into the 2024 election. Take Back the Court released the following statement on behalf of its president, Sarah Lipton-Lubet:

“The Supreme Court just ruled that states are free to guarantee that white voters’ ballots count more than anyone else’s. But this decision and Alito’s insurrection flags are just the latest evidence of what we already knew: This is a MAGA court. Now, the supermajority has told us exactly when they thought America was greatest: before the Constitution was amended to prevent voter discrimination based on race.”
