The decision by the Supreme Court today on the Voting Rights Act is an abomination.
It is an attack on a crown jewel of our democracy.
Illinois is the proud home to having sent more black congresspeople to Washington than any other state in the country.
And the Voting Rights Act is an attack on black and brown people, on people of color, on minorities.
The decision that was made today, rather, by SCOTUS about the Voting Rights Act is an attack on minorities across this country.
We're not going to stand for it in Illinois.
We're going to push back.
We have options for pushing back.
And that is under discussion with the legislature even today.
I've talked to lawyers this morning, people who are experts in this, who've said that everything that we have in Illinois now is constitutional, even under the new ruling.
So I'm sure there will be people who try to attack it.
But the reality is that if you read through the Supreme Court decision, I'm told that it validates the maps that are already in place.
And of course, we'll be looking at a new remap in Illinois in 2031.
It appears that Donald Trump, not only has dementia set in, but he's copying tactics of Vladimir Putin, sending troops into cities, thinking that that's some sort of proving ground for war, or that indeed there's some sort of internal war going on in the United States, is just...
Frankly, inane.
And I'm concerned for his health.
The idea that you're going to go suggest that you're going to arrest people or that people don't deserve to be U.S.
citizens when they are just because they oppose the president of the United States.
There is something genuinely wrong with this man.
And the 25th Amendment ought to be invoked.
