This and That

The Supreme Court heard oral arguments today on the case of Shelby County vs. Holder, a challenge from my own county to the Voting Rights Act of 1965.  I am fearful that the  Court will gut this historic law, which open the floodgates on renewed voter suppression.

Sequestration, automatic indiscriminate budget cuts, will likely go into effect Friday.  I guess we'll see what the effects are.

This country is in the process of reversing decades of progress.
