Sula Costa Daily NYC

 

Sula -- In 2018, the people of Michigan voted for an Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission to ensure a fair redistricting process -- but now, that independence is under threat by Republican interests which have been dead set against the commission from the beginning. Voters in Michigan -- with our support -- are taking legal action against this effort to undermine the commission and its map-drawing criteria, which were voted into law by an overwhelming majority of Michigan voters in 2018. Will you make a donation right now to support our work to fight for fair redistricting? We’re helping voters who are fighting back against this legal challenge – and also supporting voters in states across the country who are advocating for fair maps in and out of court. If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: DONATE $15 DONATE $35 DONATE $50 DONATE $100 DONATE $250 Another Amount Republicans who filed the convoluted lawsuit accused the independent body of map drawers of violating the U.S. constitution just by applying the state constitutional criteria. Conservatives are launching an attack against the Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission because they see the writing on the wall: they will have a harder time winning in Michigan when redistricting is fair. We need to protect the independence of commissions to ensure we have a fair redistricting process, and that can’t happen if we don't have enough resources to mobilize folks on the ground and respond to allegations like these in court. Can we count on you to make a one-time donation of $35 right now?
