TWO incredible legal updates, Sula!

Sula – take it from Axios: "With Democrats holding such slim margins in Congress, and Republicans gunning to flip dozens of House seats, every map matters for congressional power not just next year but the next decade." That’s why we’re fighting for fair redistricting in dozens of states across the country – and why our movement’s victories are so meaningful. Just in the last week: ➞ The North Carolina Supreme Court struck down Republican-rigged maps ➞ And the Ohio Supreme Court rejected GOP maps for the second time On top of that we’ve seen fair redistricting in states like Michigan, efforts to block gerrymandered maps in Pennsylvania and Minnesota, the Department of Justice suing Texas for its manipulated maps, and much more! It all matters – and you’ve been a huge part of making it happen! But with approximately 134 U.S. House seats left to adopt and multiple lawsuits pending, now is not the time to let up. Will you rush a donation to keep supporting the NDRC in this fight?
