Target: State Legislatures, Governors, and Congressional Leadership
Goal: We call on state legislatures, governors, and congressional leaders to reject partisan gerrymandering and uphold the principles of fair, representative democracy.
In recent months, Republican-led efforts to redraw congressional districts in states like Texas have threatened to tip the balance of power in Washington and silence the will of millions of voters. These moves are not about fair representation—they are about consolidating power and undermining the democratic process.
Democratic lawmakers and governors have responded by using every tool at their disposal to counter these power grabs, from delaying harmful legislation to proposing new, fairer district maps in their own states. This fight is about more than party politics—it's about defending the fundamental right of every citizen to have their vote count equally.
We must demand that our representatives stand up for democracy, reject partisan gerrymandering, and commit to reforms that ensure fair maps and equal representation. Our democracy depends on it.
