John – For decades, Wisconsin has seen some of the most brazen attempts to rig maps for Republicans who have been desperate to hold on to power in the legislature. But that era is FINALLY over. Up against a court battle that struck down the old gerrymander, the legislature passed Governor Tony Evers’ fair maps proposal — and he signed them into law! This is a generational win for Wisconsin and a defining victory for the fair maps movement, so we’re putting together a thank-you card for Governor Evers from the NDRC team to make sure he knows how much we appreciate his leadership. Will you take 30 seconds to add your name right now? → You’ve heard it said time and time again: Elections have consequences. And in Wisconsin, recent elections mean we have finally broken the vicious cycle of gerrymandering that have given Republicans a near-super majority in the legislature in a state that couldn’t be more evenly split. And now, dozens of GOP-held seats will be competitive — setting the stage for the most consequential election in decades! Governor Evers has been a fierce leader and advocate for fair maps — and now as we look forward to November, this moment is a tipping point for Wisconsin and for the fight for a fairer, more representative democracy. Thank you,
