I’m writing with good news and bad news in the fight for fair maps. If you’ll give me just a second, I’ll lay it all out for you -- but if you already know how crucial this moment is and you’d rather just pitch in right now to end GOP gerrymandering, you can do so here.

I’ll start with the bad news: In a handful of states, Republicans have either passed or are on the verge of passing highly manipulated maps that are designed to lock in Republican majorities:

  • In North Carolina, Republicans just passed maps that A.G. Holder said “are heavily manipulated in favor of their party.”

  • In Ohio, Republicans have released maps that could give them 87% of seats in Congress, despite Trump only receiving 54% of the votes in 2020.

  • In Texas, Republicans’ new maps added majority-white districts -- even though communities of color drove 95% of the state’s rapid population growth!
PITCH IN TO FIGHT BACK

Now here’s the good news: The NDRC is fighting back in more than a dozen battleground states, and we’re using all the tools at our disposal. We’re analyzing map proposals as they’re published, shining a light on officials who are manipulating redistricting for partisan gain, and mobilizing our grassroots supporters in favor of maps that fairly represent our communities.

Plus, we’re supporting voters who are defending fair maps in court in states like Oregon!

But Sula, we urgently need your support to help us keep up all that work and more. Right now our fight is at its most critical stage, so please, don’t wait. Make a donation to the NDRC right now to help us finally bring an END to GOP gerrymandering:

This is hard to believe, folks --

First, Republicans proposed -- and in some cases, enacted -- maps that LOCK IN their 2011 gerrymanders for another decade.

But then, they got even greedier, and they’re now trying to create SUPER-GERRYMANDERS in states like Georgia, Ohio, and North Carolina!

We need you to help the NDRC fight back IMMEDIATELY >>>
  • In Ohio, where Republicans have won about 54% of the vote in recent elections, the proposed congressional map would give them 87% -- you read that right, EIGHTY-SEVEN PERCENT -- of the seats.

  • In North Carolina, a perennial swing state, Republicans enacted maps that will potentially bump up the number of congressional seats they control from 8 out of 13 to 10 out of 14.

  • And in Georgia, their maps would eliminate competitive districts!

So what now? WE FIGHT BACK, Sula! We're not going to let them get away with this -- but we need your help with fundraising so we have the resources to prevent or undo these gerrymanders in every state.

It's never been more urgent: Can you donate to help us fight for fair maps in states across the country right away?
