Beginning July 1, millions of federal student loan borrowers will enter a critical 90-day window to review and select new repayment options following the end of the SAVE Plan.

For many borrowers, especially Black borrowers who carry higher student debt burdens and take longer to repay their loans, these changes could mean higher monthly payments, increased interest costs, and delays in loan forgiveness if they fail to take action.

The NAACP is committed to ensuring our communities have the information and resources they need to navigate these changes and protect their financial futures.

Join us for:

Student Loan Repayment Updates: What Black Borrowers Need to Know Now

Date: Tuesday, June 30
Time: 7-8:15 pm ET

During this discussion, we will cover:

What the end of the SAVE Plan means for borrowers
Updates on federal student loan repayment options
Potential impacts on payments and loan forgiveness
Resources and tools available to help borrowers navigate changes
Opportunities for advocacy and collective action

Student loan policy changes have a significant impact on borrowers, families, and communities. We encourage you to stay informed and share these resources with your networks.

Just in time for June 19th, 99-year-old Opal Lee — aka “the Grandmother of Juneteenth” — has her own Barbie 💖

Opal was born in Marshall, Texas in 1926. On June 19, 1939, white rioters set her family’s home on fire. That started HER fire: She was determined to make Juneteenth a federal holiday 💪🏾

For those unfamiliar, Juneteenth refers to the day the last slaves were freed. The news took two and a half YEARS to reach the final enslaved people in Texas.

In 2021, President Biden made Opal’s dream a reality — declaring Juneteenth America’s 11th federal holiday.

Even at 99, Opal still makes a symbolic two-and-a-half mile walk each year on Juneteenth!

In May 2024, Biden presented her with the Presidential Medal of Freedom — the highest civilian honor 🏅

And now, she’s earned the second-highest: her own Barbie!

Today, the NAACP, alongside the NAACP Tennessee State Conference and a coalition of civil rights and community organizations, filed a federal lawsuit challenging Tennessee’s newly enacted congressional map.

The lawsuit argues the map dismantles the state’s only majority-Black district and weakens the voting power of Black Tennesseans.

“Tennessee lawmakers made a deliberate choice to silence Black voters by dismantling a district that has long ensured representation for one of the state’s largest Black populations.” Derrick Johnson

We’re continuing the fight to protect our voting rights and ensure our communities are fairly represented.

Hello NAACP Family,

Today's Supreme Court ruling in Louisiana v. Callais is a license to silence Black voters and rig the voting system. This is a devastating blow to our democracy and decades of work to ensure equal citizenship for Black people and all people of color. But we will fight back.

This ruling defies precedent and reverses decades of hard-won progress in Black political representation across the country. The Supreme Court has betrayed Black voters, betrayed America, and betrayed our democracy.

The NAACP will not stand by idly in the face of this ruling, which attempts to return Black Americans to second-class and subordinate status.

The NAACP has been fighting this battle for decades. We are not stopping now. We are convening an emergency briefing tomorrow evening to ensure our members, partners, and supporters understand the impact of this decision and have the information and tools they need to respond.

EMERGENCY MEMBER MEETING

Date: Thursday, April 30, 2026
Time: 7:30 PM ET

DIAL IN
Featured:

Derrick Johnson, President & CEO, NAACP
Kirsten Clarke, General Counsel, NAACP
Special Guests (TBA)
We will cover:

What the ruling says and what it doesn't
The immediate impact on redistricting nationwide
Our legal, legislative, and mobilization response
How you and your unit can act right now
As President Johnson said today: our democracy is crying for help. This call is our answer.

THIS DOES NOT STOP HERE.

A court ruling cannot extinguish our organizing. We must continue to mobilize, educate, and activate our communities in every state. The NAACP has stood in this gap before. We will stand in it again.

The path forward begins at the ballot box. November 2026 is not a distant deadline; it is our most immediate and powerful response. We must turn out voters who will elect representatives committed to restoring and expanding voting rights. Every registration. Every phone bank. Every door knocked. It all leads here. The time is now.

Do not wait. Register. Plan. Organize. Vote.

Please join us tomorrow night, bring your networks, and let’s build our response together.
