# [#]Friend,
The special session of the Texas Legislature is underway – and Republicans are moving full steam ahead on Trump’s plan to gerrymander our maps ahead of the midterms.
If they’re successful, they could steal as many as FIVE congressional seats for Trump, potentially blocking Democrats from taking back the House in Congress.
Help us fight back – chip in $25, or whatever you can, to help us fight back against this attack on our democracy in congress, in the courts, and at the ballot box. Your support at this critical moment makes a BIG difference. [[link removed]]
