AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Voting Rights Fallout: Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson warned the U.S. Supreme Court risks looking political after its Louisiana redistricting ruling sped up map changes and weakened parts of the Voting Rights Act—an alarm bell that’s now echoing into the midterms. Louisiana Redistricting: The House is set to take its next swing Thursday on the GOP congressional map, with lawmakers promising public testimony and likely tweaks but “very similar” overall shape. NAACP Pressure Campaign: The NAACP launched “Out of Bounds,” urging Black athletes and fans to boycott major public university sports in states it says are erasing Black voting power—naming Louisiana among eight. Local Governance: Lafayette’s zoning board again said no to a downtown cigar bar’s alcohol permit, sending the request to the city council. Health & Safety: A salmonella-related pantry recall hit again, while FDA inspection counts show more scrutiny in Lafayette and Rapides-area cities. Politics Nationally: Trump endorsed Texas AG Ken Paxton over John Cornyn, signaling the GOP’s loyalty tests are still the playbook.
