Sula -- The GOP has used a number of tricks to justify their map manipulation. Now CNN reports that Republicans in many states are claiming that "racial data played no role as they drew the maps for the next 10 years." As if we’re to believe it’s just a coincidence that their maps happen to diminish the power of communities of color! We know the truth: Republican gerrymandering is intended to weaken the political power of Black and brown people, who tend to vote Democratic. Just look at this headline from The New York Times: And this is why the struggle against gerrymandering is a civil rights struggle, Sula. But the NDRC has no intention of allowing Republicans to get away with this. We're fighting them in the states, we're uplifting the voices of communities of color in redistricting, and our affiliates are supporting voters in lawsuits against rigged maps. But how much we can do depends on you. Rush a donation NOW to help us win this fight >>> If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: Donate $10 Donate $20 Donate $50 Donate $100 Donate $150 Another amount Team NDRC   DONATE Since 2017, the NDRC has executed a comprehensive redistricting strategy that shifts the redistricting power, creating fair districts where Democrats can compete.

This wouldn't have happened without regular people seeing a change that needed to be made, getting engaged, and being persistent. And it's exactly the kind of effort the NDRC is supporting all over the country.

In the past few months we've seen repeatedly that truly independent processes result in fairness -- and as A.G. Holder said, "where Democrats can compete in a fair system, they can win." But many challenges remain, as in the case of Arizona’s commission, where a biased process resulted in skewed maps. That's why it's critical that we keep fighting across the country to prevent Republican gerrymandering and support voters in lawsuits when necessary. Will you help us fund this work? Let's go out and win more victories in 2022!

Sula, Since our launch in 2017, the team here at the NDRC -- fueled by donations from supporters like you -- has been working tirelessly to protect our democracy. And the good news is that during phase 1 of our long-term plan, we made some BIG headway in the fight for fair maps: We helped flip 10 governor’s offices to blue. We helped break nine Republican trifectas in state governments. We mobilized our community to help pass bipartisan redistricting reform in 5 states. But believe us when we say NONE of those accomplishments would have been possible without your support. And the fight isn’t over yet, which is why we need you to pitch in anything you can today to help us keep pushing for fair maps and voting rights in 2022! Because despite all the progress we’ve made, there’s still a ton of work left to do to defend our democracy. Now that we’re in phase 2 of our plan, we’re working every single day to: Fight back against GOP voter suppression in the states. Boost federal redistricting and voting rights reforms in Congress. Support voters in lawsuits when necessary. Win FAIR maps in the states that have yet to adopt new ones. PITCH IN TO HELP US KEEP FIGHTING! We still have an opportunity to make a lasting impact on the maps that will govern our elections for the next 10 years, but we can’t do it without your help every step of the way. That means you have two choices: Either pitch in now to help us keep doing everything we can to protect fair maps, or sit on the sidelines and hope somebody else will instead.

The Congressional Black Caucus of the House of Representatives issued a statement urging their colleagues in the Senate to pass the Freedom to Vote Act. The bill has already passed the House, Biden has signaled support for it -- we just need the Senate to act!

Their latest call for action comes on the heels of Georgia Senator Raphael Warnock’s speech urging his Democratic colleagues in the Senate to take national action on voting rights as Republicans continue to refuse to even debate the bill.

Do you agree with Senator Warnock and the Congressional Black Caucus that we need to take immediate action on voting rights?

CBC Chairwoman Joyce Beatty sounded the alarm on Republican efforts to muddy the waters on the state level, warning black voters will be especially impacted by the hundreds of voter suppression laws that have been considered.

Representative Beatty said: Black communities will “lose the most if the Senate does not do its job and pass voting rights legislation."

Passing nationwide voting reforms is one of the single greatest ways we can stave off undemocratic attempts to overturn fair election results on the national, state, and local level.

Senate Majority Leader Schumer gave Republicans a deadline -- come to the negotiation table by MLK Day or Democrats will consider changes to the Senate rules to end the obstruction on the democracy reforms we so badly need.

MAP & DIRECTIONS

Sula -- Did you see this report by NBC? Their coverage titled "Aggressive gerrymandering may make elections far less competitive" did a deep dive on how Republicans manipulated maps in AOTL target states:

✥ North Carolina: Republican legislators “ignored race data.”
✥ Ohio: GOP lawmakers “sidestepped a new commission.”
✥ Georgia: Conservative map drawers drew a map with “no competitive seats.”
✥ Texas: Right-wing lawmakers eliminated many swing districts with a map that resulted in the “loss of some of the most competitive House races in the country.”

If you’re in a position to do so, will you make a donation to All On The Line to help us fight for fair elections and pass the Freedom to Vote Act? This bill will establish a baseline of fairness to the congressional maps in all 50 states thanks to its anti-gerrymandering provisions.

Brennan Center redistricting expert Michael Li warned: "Competition is one of the big victims of this round of redistricting.”

Competitive districts are the foundation of our democracy. They ensure neither party becomes too extreme or polarized. We cannot allow this trend of eliminating swing districts to go unchecked.

If Congress passes the Freedom to Vote Act, maps in these states could be challenged on partisan gerrymandering grounds. Our team already determined the maps in North Carolina, Ohio, Georgia, and Texas would all FAIL the bill’s gerrymandering test.

Will you make a donation -- of any amount -- to support our movement in helping to pass this bill? We must take action on voting rights in the next few weeks.
