The next redistricting battle might be who is counted in state legislative districts
A Republican push to alter the census may lead to a radical shift in redistricting for state legislatures — drawing districts that don't take into account children and non-U.S. citizen adults.
#AZLeg Republicans want to do Trump's bidding with #SCR1031, creating a fake new citizen-only “census” that "would advantage Republicans and non-Hispanic whites." If enacted, AZ would see huge negative impacts, disenfranchising younger, diverse voters in favor of older, whiter ones.

Actions like this fail our voters in an attempt to stroke the ego of one man who still refuses to move on from an election he lost six years ago.

It’s deeply concerning to learn through social media that the Senate President has suddenly revived this nonsense by turning over voter information to the federal government.
Arizona’s elections are free, fair, and secure, and Arizonans deserve elections they can trust.

The failed Cyber Ninjas “fraudit” was a national embarrassment for the Arizona Senate, wasting millions of dollars trying and failing to prove conspiracy theories about the 2020 election in Maricopa County.

Abigail Spanberger being a more unapologetic liberal as governor of Virginia is a sign of what happens when Democrats have a bigger majority in their state legislatures. We saw the same thing when Tim Walz went from being a Blue Dog pro-gun Democrat to being a progressive as governor.

Spanberger is evolving to meet the moment. She realizes where people are and moving there instead of playing milquetoast center.

Republican plan would send taxpayer dollars to Turning Point USA to memorialize Charlie Kirk
An Arizona bill for a Charlie Kirk license plate would funnel $17 per plate to Turning Point USA, whose affiliates paid the sponsor millions
“To me, to use a government program to financially benefit one political organization sets just a troubling precedent, and it risks blurring the lines between state neutrality and political advocacy.”

Sundareshan told the Mirror that her biggest concern with the license plate bill was “whether a senator sponsored legislation that would directly enrich themselves.”

"Though Trump’s border czar Tom Homan had said activities would focus on the “worst of the worst,” violent criminals who had pending removal orders, the criminal cases brought have largely been from routine police encounters."

(5/11) Walmart, Whole Foods, and Kohls are switching to electronic shelf labels that can display dynamic prices. Kroger deployed them with Microsoft AI—a setup a 2024 Senate inquiry warned could enable “surge pricing” via facial recognition. (Kroger claims it will only lower prices.)

I fear it will look as if the Republican chairs of the Joint Legislative Budget Committee are intentionally sabotaging the elections for 2026, unless they schedule this for review immediately.

Reminder: In November, we can flip over 650 state legislative seats across the country – helping us secure multiple new majorities and trifectas – including in battlegrounds like Arizona, Michigan, New Hampshire, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.
