— SCOTUS Just Ended 60 Years of Affirmative Action for House Democrats. Congressional Democrats talk tough about leveling the playing field. Now they’re complaining that the Supreme Court just gave them one. It turns out “fair” meant “rigged in our favor” – and on April 29 the court called their bluff. Louisiana v. Callais is about ending a 60-year abuse that turned the 1965 Voting Rights Act from a tool for stopping racial discrimination into a weapon for mandating it. Under a warped interpretation of the law’s original purpose, federal courts long forced states to draw congressional maps based on voters’ race. The result: 144 majority-minority districts, just 23 of which elected Republicans in 2024. Call it what it is: affirmative action for Democratic members of Congress.
