Team,

There’s a lot of news swirling about the redistricting fight here in Texas, and I want to ground us in the facts ( if you’re looking for a place to take action, please donate to our efforts now [[link removed]] ): * Redrawing congressional maps aligns with the Census, which happens every 10 years with the next one taking place in 2030… 5 years from now.
*
* What’s happening right now is an unprecedented power grab by Trump with the assistance of Gov. Abbott. This isn’t about representation. It is purely an attempt to manipulate the maps to pick up seats and try to stop voters from taking Trump’s slim GOP majority in the U.S. House.

Texans have a right to fair representation. I expect Texas elected officials to take orders from and serve the people of Texas, not Donald Trump.

I said it before, and I will say it again: The difference between Republicans and Democrats in Texas right now is that Republicans will trample on your constitutional rights to hold on to political power. Democrats will risk losing their own political power to protect your constitutional rights.

So what happens now? Abbott and Trump’s MAGA map power grab will likely go back into a new special session early next week.

I guess if you don’t succeed, try and try again 😵‍💫 even if it is clear the public and country are vehemently against your scheme, regardless of party affiliation.

Here’s the thing: Texas Democrats have been fighting and holding the line. We need to defend Texans' right to fair representation.

Our members are a big part of this fight — but so are you. I’m setting a $15,000 goal before Sunday night so we can walk into Monday’s new session ready and able to show that the people of Texas (and nationwide) are with us in stopping this attempt to further polarize and harm our democracy.

Chip in now to help us raise an additional $15,000 as we prep for Monday’s new session → [[link removed]]

This isn’t over. The only thing that stopped Abbott’s scheme over the last two weeks was our Texas Democrats holding the line — and the people who powered that: you.

Abbott knows this map is illegal. Ken Paxton knows it’s illegal. But they think if they move fast enough, they can get away with it. They’re wrong — but only if we’ve got the resources to fight them now, before the gavel drops.

We can’t let that happen. You can help here. [[link removed]]

In the fight,

Kendall

P.S. If you want to take another step in the fight against the GOP’s illegal, racist redistricting scam — check out and fight the Trump takeover by joining a National Day of Action event [[link removed]] near you this Saturday.
We are the Texas Dems. We're protecting Texans from Republican extremists and their unending stream of misinformation statewide. Let's be clear, Texas Republicans have drawn district lines to choose the voters they want, and D.C. Republicans have poured tens of millions of dollars in dark money into Texas. We are on the front lines of pushing back against their influence with voters.
Taking Texas back from extremist Republicans is going to take all of us. Will you chip in now to help us elect Democrats who will work hard to represent all Texans, and not just the wealthy few? [[link removed]]
