Team – If you want to understand the power of our grassroots movement, just look at headlines like this:
For nearly four decades, extreme gerrymandering helped the GOP hold a vice grip on power in Michigan, even when Democratic candidates earned more votes in statewide elections. This enabled Republicans to implement their anti-worker agenda while blocking progress on priorities like gun safety.
But those days are over now – and our fair maps movement helped make it happen!
FIRST, in 2018, the NDRC and its affiliates supported the creation of Michigan’s independent redistricting commission to make map drawing fair and nonpartisan.
THEN, in 2021, the commission approved fair maps across the board. The New York Times called Michigan’s congressional map “one of the fairest” maps in the country.
SO, in 2022, when the NDRC supported Democracy Defenders running across Michigan, these candidates competed on a level playing field. And – thanks to your grassroots support – many of them won.
NOW, we’re continuing our work to secure fair maps, protect voting rights, and defend democracy in more states across the country. Will you pitch in to help nationwide? |
Thanks to our proven strategy, democracy is working in Michigan. But we must not forget what Attorney General Eric Holder said: “Now is not the time to take our democracy for granted.”
With a crucial state supreme court race approaching next week in Wisconsin that could determine the future of voting rights, abortion rights, and even the 2024 presidential election, your support has never been more important. Will you donate today to help continue powering the NDRC’s democracy-saving work nationwide?
