Shameful. Just shameful… Team, Republicans are conspiring right now to steal the 2026 midterm elections. They know how unpopular their agenda is, especially after passing a budget bill that will hurt millions of families. So Donald Trump has demanded that Texas Republicans call a special session to design a further gerrymandered map — in the hopes that it could net them four or five seats next fall. I’ll be frank: If the GOP is able to remain in power despite the will of the people, it will be an outrageous violation of our democracy. Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress are afraid of voters who are rightfully furious with their far-right agenda. Instead of changing the way they govern, they’re deciding to cheat — manipulating district lines to cling to illegitimate power. And that’s not democracy. That's the kind of discrimination that we all should stand against. At the National Democratic Redistricting PAC, we’re working tirelessly in Texas and around the country alongside the Democratic National Committee to end gerrymandering by electing fair maps champions, advancing redistricting reform, and growing a grassroots movement for free and fair elections. This is a fight we’re built to win.

One of the most shameful parts about this is that Governor Greg Abbott announced that he added mid-decade redistricting to the agenda on July 9 — just days after deadly flooding devastated parts of the state, in the middle of recovery efforts and amidst communities searching for loved ones. Folks, it’s moments like these that this batch of Republicans are showing their true colors. Communities in Texas needed their governor to lead in a moment of tragedy and crisis. Instead, he prioritized a partisan scheme to cling to unearned power. Keep in mind: The current map is already being challenged by voters because it violates the Voting Rights Act with a clear-cut racial gerrymander. Now, the state wants to double down on this illegal map — seizing an opportunity to manipulate maps even further in a blatant power grab simply because they cannot win fairly. And now, they could manufacture power for themselves for years to come in Texas. In service, Eric H.
