Interfaith Alliance Joins Civil Rights Organizations Opposing DC Policing Takeover
On August 15th, Interfaith Alliance joined 125 other organizations to express concern over President Trump’s decision to assert control over the District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) and to deploy the National Guard throughout the city.

For decades, elected officials have attempted to gerrymander districts in their respective states in order to maintain their party’s political power, but never has a president publicly strategized on how to use ad-hoc redistricting in order to maintain his political power.
