The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.

Gerrymandering and disinformation campaigns reduce incentives for politicians to represent us. In a representative democracy, that is a real problem. It requires more work to overcome one it. But as Vance shows, the work we’re doing is making a difference.

But the reason not to think too little of this moment: politicians changing course under pressure from voters is exactly how democracy is supposed to work. The numbers and volume of voters speaking out don’t work to change politicians’ minds so much as their behavior.
