Start your day with TPM.
Sign up for the Morning Memo newsletter

At 5 PM this afternoon, we’ll be hosting Professor Gary May for a TPMPrime Live Chat. He’ll be discussing his new book Bending Toward Justice: The Voting Rights Act and the Transformation of American Democracy, which Justice Ginsburg cited in her dissent in Shelby County v. Holder. This is, as I probably don’t have to tell you, an incredibly important subject – not just historically but right now. Get your questions in now and join us at 5 PM.
