## Resource

Kimberly Atkins Stohr hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss the SCOTUS ruling in Louisiana v. Callais, looking at the history of district allocation, how it undermines the Voting Rights Act, the significance of Justice Kagan’s dissent, and what it could mean for the country going forward. Then, the #Sisters explain the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey, the legal definition of a true threat, and the protection the 1st Amendment affords political speech. They also review the criminal charges against the attempted presidential assassin at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner and the ethics of using it as leverage for a White House ballroom.
