«On Wednesday, July 12, the U.S. #DepartmentOfJustice ( #DOJ ) sought permission to participate in a federal lawsuit challenging a set of recently enacted #Mississippi laws. The lawsuit, which was filed in April by the #NAACP and its local Mississippi chapters, brings claims against two anti-democratic laws, #HB1020 and #SB2343. Both laws target #Jackson, Mississippi’s majority-Black population.»
“The Mississippi Legislature passed #HB1020, a bill to create a separate, unelected court system in Jackson — a city that is over 80% Black — with judges appointed entirely by white officials. The bill now heads to Gov. Tate Reeves (R) for his signature. https://t.co/wSnS4ld2Ze”

The proposal, HB 1020, has been put forth by its GOP backers as a measure to increase public safety and reduce backlogs in the courts, but local leaders have argued the measure is a power grab from the state’s largely conservative, white legislature against the majority Black population of Jackson. “Only in Mississippi would we have a bill like this … where we say solving the problem requires removing the vote from Black people,” Rep Ed Blackmon, a Democrat, said at the legislature on Tuesday." ** Become a TDR YouTube Member: http://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport/join Follow The Damage Report on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDamageReportTYT/ Help build the Home of the Progressives http://tyt.com/JOIN Subscribe to The Damage Report YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/thedamagereport?sub_confirmation=1 Follow The Damage Report on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thedamagereport?lang=en Follow The Damage Report on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/thedamagereport/ Follow The Damage Report on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TheDamageReport #TheDamageReport #JohnIadarola #TheYoungTurks 230210__DR07MississippiBP
