Callais:\n\n\u201cThis is a shameful, partisan, and disastrous decision that effectively guts what remains of the Voting Rights Act. This Supreme Court is all too eager to fall in line with Donald Trump and the Republican Party at the direct expense of the American people.\n\n\"Let\u2019s be clear: Republicans would not be pursuing every possible pathway to gerrymander, redistrict, and suppress voters if they were confident in their policies. They are doing this because they are afraid of what happens when voters see how these policies have failed them.\n\n\"This decision will have far-reaching consequences, severely weakening representation for Black communities and people of color in Congress and across the country. It undermines the core promise of our democracy \u2014 that every voice matters and every vote counts.\n\n\"The Voting Rights Act is the crowning achievement of the Civil Rights Movement. As Justice Kagan wrote in her dissent, 'it has been repeatedly, and overwhelmingly, reauthorized by the people's representatives in Congress. Only they have the right to say it is no longer needed \u2014 not the Members of this Court.' She is right \u2014 and I dissent. I will continue to press for voting rights legislation that protects the power of every American\u2019s vote.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-06-25T06:30:03Z", "2026-06-25T06:31:21Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://mcbride.house.gov/media/press-releases/rep-mcbride-statement-scotus-ruling-louisiana-v-callais"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9068180806934834, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
