Target: Democratic Governors of the United States
Goal: We call on Democratic governors to take decisive, coordinated action to counter anti-democratic redistricting efforts and protect fair representation for all.
Recent moves by Republican-controlled states, spearheaded by former President Trump, are designed to redraw congressional maps for partisan advantage, threatening the foundational principle of fair representation. While some Democratic governors—like JB Pritzker, Gavin Newsom, and Kathy Hochul—have taken public stands and offered support to lawmakers resisting these efforts, others have remained on the sidelines or offered only symbolic gestures.
With the balance of power in Congress at stake, and with independent redistricting commissions under attack, it is imperative that Democratic governors use every tool at their disposal to fight back. We urge governors in states with Democratic control to pursue aggressive strategies to ensure fair maps, and for all Democratic governors to coordinate, provide safe harbor, and use their platforms to expose and resist partisan gerrymandering.
This is a historic moment. The outcome will shape the political landscape for a generation. We need bold leadership and a unified response to safeguard our democracy from partisan manipulation. We demand that Democratic governors act now, with resolve and urgency.
Key Demands
- Publicly denounce partisan gerrymandering and expose efforts to undermine fair representation.
- Coordinate with fellow Democratic governors to develop a unified strategy against anti-democratic redistricting.
- In states with Democratic control, pursue legal and legislative avenues to ensure congressional maps reflect the will of the people.
- Provide material and logistical support to lawmakers resisting undemocratic redistricting efforts, including safe harbor and media amplification.
- Advocate for and implement reforms that make redistricting transparent, equitable, and accountable to voters, not politicians.
- Engage constituents through town halls and public forums to keep them informed and mobilized around the fight for fair representation.
