Folks, 

Alabama just made history. Last week, federal judges permanently blocked Alabama from using a state-drawn map that diluted the voting strength of Black voters.

Thanks to the tireless efforts of community organizers and activists, Alabama now has two Black members of Congress, out of its seven seats in the U.S. House, with Rep. Shomari Figures securing a win in the state’s newly drawn second district.

This is a huge victory in the fight for fair and equitable representation. It will ensure that Alabama’s Black voters will always have a voice in the democratic process.

But it doesn’t stop here.

In our target regions, time and again, progress is met with opposition from conservatives trying to undermine our rights — from limiting voting access to stripping away hard-won civil liberties. Now, more than ever, it’s critical that we support the progressive organizers on the ground who are pushing back against these efforts.

Fair and equitable representation is a critical first step towards ensuring that underserved, rural communities have a voice in our democracy. And we need your help to keep pushing forward.
