“White House Pushes Texas to Redistrict, Hoping to Blunt Democratic Gains”
— June 9, 2025

Team, the New York Times just reported that Donald Trump is actively pressuring Texas lawmakers to redraw its congressional map mid-decade in order to get an upper hand in the midterm elections. They want a “ruthless” gerrymander that they hope might pick up four or five more seats for Republicans in the House.

Trump and his allies clearly don’t think they can win fairly, so they’re breaking out every tool in the autocracy playbook to try to cheat instead.

This is exactly the kind of abuse of power the NDRC is built to fight — we’re leading the fight against gerrymandering in Texas and beyond. Rush in a donation today to push back against anti-democracy extremists who are determined to manipulate maps in the pursuit of power. [[link removed]]

Texas’s congressional map is already being sued for violating the Voting Rights Act — and now Trump wants Republicans to try to gerrymander it even more.

It doesn’t stop in Texas, either: Just a few states away in Ohio, Republicans there are gearing up to redraw their map. They have a history of trying to pack the state’s Democratic voters into a small number of districts, and some in their party see this as an opportunity to gain up to three additional congressional seats.

Now, Trump himself is wading in to put pressure on Texas. The Republican strategy for the midterms is built on undermining fair representation.

Republicans’ attempts to gerrymander maps show anything but strength — they show weakness, and a blatant disregard for American democracy and fair and free elections as we know it.

These attacks represent real, acute threats to our democracy, but we’ve beaten them back before, and we can do it again. Donate today and let’s defeat extreme, partisan gerrymandering wherever it raises its ugly head. [[link removed]]
