Fair Elections Center is a national, nonpartisan voting rights and election reform 501(c)(3) organization based in Washington, D.C.
Today the Supreme Court ruled in the highly anticipated case Callais V. Louisiana. The 6-3 decision effectively leaves Section 2 of the 1965 Voting Rights Act "all but a dead letter," Justice Elena Kagan said in her dissenting opinion.
This decision will undoubtedly make voting harder for millions of Americans, but the fight is far from over. Read Fair Elections Center`s full statement at the link in our bio (bit.ly/fec_callais)

Yesterday, Department of Justice filed fraud charges against the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), alleging the long-established civil rights group was funding the very extremism it works to dismantle. The allegations mark a new low in the Trump Administration`s rollback of civil rights, fitting within a broader pattern of intimidation designed to destabilize organizations that monitor discrimination and protect vulnerable communities.
Rebekah Caruthers, President and CEO at Fair Elections Center, issued the following statement in solidarity with SPLC. Read the full statement at the link in our bio.
Earlier this month, the Trump Administration released another executive order aimed at illegally federalizing our elections. After several failed attempts to pass the disastrous SAVE Act, the President is attempting to mandate the use of an unreliable database to make sure (or so he claims) that only citizens are voting and to force the US Postal Service to only send mail ballots to these verified citizens. As citizens are already the only ones voting and as the USPS could not possibly enforce such an edict in any case, "the entire executive order is based on a fantasy," says Jon Sherman, Litigation Director at the Fair Elections Center, in an interview with the Progress Report Substack, where he outlines the legal and practical concerns raised by the order.
