Today, Campaign Legal Center, Alabama voters and civil rights groups successfully defended naturalized Americans who were unfairly purged from Alabama’s voter rolls. A federal judge halted Alabama’s illegal and last-minute purge program, which put the freedom to vote for thousands of Alabamians in jeopardy, holding that Alabama could not systematically operate their program meant to remove voters from the rolls in the ninety days before the 2024 general election. 

The changes now occurring to the climate system around the world affect us all, particularly women and girls. By 2050, it “will push up to 158 million more women and girls into poverty and lead to 236 million more women into hunger.” 

Women in rural areas in particular are affected to a much larger degree than their urban-dwelling counterparts. 

Today, in an important victory for Alabama voters, the Eleventh Circuit left in place a court order that temporarily blocks Alabama from prosecuting people and organizations who assist voters who are blind, disabled, or lack the ability to read or write in completing and submitting their absentee ballot applications.
