PROPOSED AMENDMENT for APRIL 2026 SPECIAL ELECTION IN CONTEXT
Last July, President Donald Trump ordered Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) to redistrict his state in the middle of the decade in order to carve out an additional five Republican-leaning congressional districts, which would bolster the party's odds of keeping control of the U.

An American Pope, an LG Endorsement, and More
Unlike a lot of politicians during COVID19, Babur was focused on kids. He didn’t give in to hysteria or use the public schools as a political tool.
