John, look at the headlines we’ve seen recently:

The Tributary
Florida redistricting trial: Expert claims DeSantis' role broke norms
➡️ A federal court challenge to Florida's congressional map featured expert testimony, alleging Gov. DeSantis intervened with racial bias in the Legislature's mapmaking.

WTSP
Federal trial set to resume in Florida congressional redistricting case
➡️ The lawsuit says the maps that were drawn in 2022 and were used in the midterm elections helped Republicans.

Newsweek
Ron DeSantis poised for huge blow if Florida election map redrawn
➡️ In a federal trial, DeSantis is accused of intentionally racially discriminating against Black voters by endorsing a congressional map last year which helped the GOP win four seats.

Governor DeSantis thinks that he can undermine Black voters and not be held accountable, but we know that won’t be the case. When people like DeSantis try to undermine Black opportunity districts, we must let our voices be here. As we watch this unfold, your continued efforts to support grassroots organizations like All On The Line truly matter.

First, 
Ron DeSantis didn’t approve of maps that fairly gave Black voters representation in their districts. 

Then, 
He split a congressional district with a Black lawmaker into two, an even more extreme move as a denial of fair representation. This took away a district that previously gave Black voters an opportunity to elect a candidate of their choice, and instead split their voices across two districts in an effort to drown out their voices.

Now, 
DeSantis is being accused in court, and legal experts, judges, and constituents will take a closer look at his racial bias.

As we see similar situations happening in not only Florida but also states like Louisiana and Alabama, we see why we must continue to fight for our democracy.  When we see politicians continuously trying to undermine Black voters, we won’t turn a blind eye. Fair maps are for all, and under-representation isn’t an answer we will take.

Will you donate to All On The Line today to help us keep taking on the fight for fair maps and fair representation?

Together we can fight for a better, more fair, and representative future.
