John, I’m relieved.
Today, the U.S. Supreme Court did the right thing and took a stand against
corrupt, partisan state politicians trying to gain unchecked power over
federal elections.
In its decision, the Court has rejected a claim under the Independent
State Legislature Theory (ISLT) which would have handed state lawmakers
the ability to make unilateral changes to laws about things like
gerrymandering, absentee voting, and voter ID.
Let us be clear: ISLT was always a fringe theory pushed by extremists.
Now, that radical reinterpretation of the Constitution has been rejected
by our nation’s highest court. But we know corrupt politicians won’t stop
there.
So today, I’m breathing a sigh of relief that democracy is safe for
another day. And tomorrow, RepresentUs will get back to work strengthening
American democracy because [ [link removed] ]as long as corrupt politicians are making a
power play, we’ll be standing guard. Are you with us?

While we’re relieved the Court made the right decision, there are several
other cases working their way through the court system all pushing the
same extreme attempts to hoard power and silence voters.
This isn’t the first case of its kind and it won’t be the last. [ [link removed] ]We
can’t slow down now – it’s time to double down on our work in cities and
states across the country to put a stop to the power grabs happening all
over the country.
Politicians are carrying out a national, coordinated, and unprecedented
legislative and legal strategy to take away voters’ ability to pass laws
through ballot initiatives. We’ve got our work cut out for us – and with
you by our side, I know we’ll keep winning.
Let’s get to work,
Dave O'Brien
