The Center for Election Confidence (“CEC”) today filed an amicus brief in Louisiana v. Callais (No. 24-109), urging the Supreme Court to protect equal voting rights in redistricting cases brought under Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.

To further that goal, CEC argues three main points in its brief.
