Congress must act. Ban partisan gerrymandering nationally. Restore the protections this Court keeps dismantling.
Ban partisan gerrymandering nationally and restore the protections of the Voting Rights Act.
Occurrences
Evidence
The page says Walkinshaw led efforts to expand early voting access and defend voting rights, is a cosponsor of the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, and supports legislation to protect against partisan gerrymandering.
On June 2, 2026, Walkinshaw said USPS moving forward with a rule implementing Trump's executive order restricting mail-in voting was an unconstitutional attack and argued no president can put federal officials between voters and their ballots.
Assessments
The promised outcomes were not achieved by June 13, 2026: there was no enacted national ban on partisan gerrymandering and no federal restoration of the Voting Rights Act protections referenced in the pledge. Walkinshaw did make same-term efforts, including cosponsoring the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act and supporting anti-gerrymandering legislation, plus public advocacy on voting access. That supports an effort badge, but not fulfillment because the underlying national policy outcomes were still not delivered.
