# [#]Friend,
We’re headed for a HUGE fight in Texas – and we need your help.
Donald Trump has ordered Greg Abbott to gerrymander Texas’s congressional maps AHEAD of the upcoming midterms – to block Democrats from taking back the House.
Greg Abbott has already called a special session. And reports are that Republicans plan to gerrymander FIVE new districts – which could be enough to block Democrats from taking back the House.
This is a five-alarm fire. My Democratic colleagues and I plan to fight this attempt to rig our elections using every tool we have. But we need your help.
Can you chip in $15, $25, or $50 to help us fight back against Trump and Abbott’s illegal attempt to rig Texas’s elections? This fight could determine control of the U.S. House – so we need all the support we can get. [[link removed]]

Friend, if Trump and Abbott’s scheme is successful, it could prevent Democrats from winning back the House next November — which is our only chance to put a check on Trump.
Texas’s congressional maps are already gerrymandered in REPUBLICANS’ favor. But now they’re doubling down – silencing millions of voters to squeeze more votes for Republicans.
Here’s the bottom line: Trump knows that he can’t win fairly. He knows his toxic agenda will cost him the House. So he’s decided to cheat – full stop.
We must fight back against this assault on our democracy. If we don’t, Democrats could be locked out of power for the entire Trump presidency—and beyond.
We need your help – can you chip in whatever you can to help me and my colleagues fight back against this blatantly illegal power grab? [[link removed]]
More to come on this fight soon. Thank you, as always, for being a part of this team.
Thank you,
