Alabama’s refusal to draw fair congressional maps per a Supreme Court #SCOTUS decision [and brag about it] will be put to the test before a three-judge panel in federal court today. Comply or defy? The Alabama case has far-reaching implications. #VotingRights #FairMaps @LWV of Alabama

@lwv_wa Comply or defy a Supreme Court order? Democracy is under attack.

They're following the Supreme Court order, though.

In its ruling, linked below, the Court told Alabama that it couldn't be race-neutral, that it HAD to gerrymander based on race. So it did with its new map, just as the Court said it must to comply with the Voting Rights Act.
