Taking a stand against racial gerrymandering! Our Common Cause NC team is here in Winston-Salem for the start of our federal trial against racially discriminatory gerrymandering in North Carolina! #ncpol

We’re in Winston-Salem this week, taking North Carolina’s racially gerrymandered maps to federal court. This trial is about fair representation — and today, CommonCauseNC's Bob Phillips is set to testify on why our democracy depends on it.

We're taking gerrymandering to court in North Carolina! Our Bob Phillips of Common Cause NC speaks with Omar Noureldin of @commoncause about our trial against discriminatory gerrymandering underway right now at federal court in Winston-Salem. #ncpol

Juneteenth is a celebration of freedom — and a reminder that the work isn’t done. Black communities are still fighting voter suppression, systemic injustice, and attacks on democracy. We honor this day by continuing that fight.

"North Carolina's current congressional and state legislative maps are an insult to the voters of our state," Tyler Daye of Common Cause NC powerfully said at a press conference last week on the opening day of our trial against gerrymandering. #ncpol

Join us in Winston-Salem on Wednesday, July 9 to help pack the court for what may be the final day and closing arguments in our crucial trial against racially discriminatory gerrymandering. Learn more & RSVP: ccnc.me/court #ncpol

NEW: More than 75 former judges urge U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee – of which Sen. Thom Tillis (NC) is a member – to REJECT Trump judicial nominee Emil Bove. More: bit.ly/44OGwoq #ncpol

🚨ACTION ALERT: Tell Senator Tillis to vote NO to the alarming nomination of Trump lawyer Emil Bove to the federal court ➡️ccnc.me/NoToBove #NoToBove #ncpol

Emil Bove is a danger to the rule of law. According to a whistleblower, he suggested the administration say “F*** you” to a court order, and he dropped charges in a corrupt deal with the mayor of NYC. He is unfit to be a judge. Call your senators and tell them to Oppose Bove.

Common Cause NC is calling on Senator Thom Tillis to honor his pledge to reject any nominee who excuses the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol by voting NO on the nomination of Emil Bove to the U.S. Court of Appeals: bit.ly/4eWPsNp #ncpol

John Lewis taught us that “Ours is the struggle of a lifetime, or maybe even many lifetimes, and each one of us in every generation must do our part.” We must continue the struggle by passing the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.

In 2017, our Common Cause Democracy Fellows met a hero of democracy: Rep. John Lewis. The powerful legacy of John Lewis continues to inspire us as we build a democracy for all. On July 17, join a “Good Trouble Lives On” event near you: ccnc.me/GoodTrouble

"When we fight, we win!" Tonight's #GoodTroubleLivesOn rally in Raleigh was one of many across the state and around the nation today as people honored the powerful legacy of John Lewis and spoke up for our freedoms, justice, and democracy! #GoodTrouble
