Team: This email is about partisan gerrymandering. We hope you read it, but if you are already on board, we urge you to click here and add your name to our petition to stop Republican gerrymandering. Thank you!
We need to talk about partisan gerrymandering.
For those who are unfamiliar, this is when politicians redraw a voting map to only include constituents of their own party so they can win elections before the voting even starts.
And Republicans have been shamelessly gerrymandering for years – going so far as to exclude minority neighborhoods entirely from their districts.
Voters should choose their leaders – not the other way around!
And at a time when our democratic institutions are under attack, we must do everything we can to strengthen our democracy, not create loopholes and cheat sheets.
Every cycle it seems there are dozens of court cases involving Republicans carving into voting maps to silence Democrats, minorities, and working families.
Enough is enough: It is time to send a message to Congress that partisan gerrymandering is not okay!
