Friends:

Right now, people across Utah are celebrating after a district court struck down the state’s gerrymandered map.

As someone who spent a significant amount of time working in Utah this past redistricting cycle, I can’t say enough about the weight of this moment. I’m deeply proud of all the work the fair maps movement put in to fight for fair maps where voters' voices can truly be heard.

As we rightfully celebrate this moment, I’m also reflecting on what it took to get here.

I saw firsthand how Utah’s congressional map disenfranchised my Latin community on the west side of Salt Lake. I watched hours of public testimony of voters who took time from their busy schedules to share how unfair the maps were, especially to the people of Salt Lake City. And I witnessed young voters propose their own maps to the commission and really immerse themselves in the process to fight back in whatever way they could.

Friends, this was a hard-won victory. But it doesn’t just signify a win for Utahns. It’s an important moment for the entire country, because it shows us that fairness is winning — even in states that aren’t typically battlegrounds.

So as we look ahead to the map redraw in Utah, I’m also thinking about the redraw in Ohio, the gerrymandered map that just passed in Texas, and ongoing threats in Missouri, Indiana, and Florida. All On The Line is relying on the strength of this grassroots movement to ensure we can keep mobilizing for the fights ahead to promote free and fair elections and to protect our democracy.

Will you donate now to help fund this critical work?

Thanks so much,
