The attacks on our democracy have been nonstop these days. It feels like we can barely catch our breath:

Multiple states have passed rare mid-decade redraws — manipulating their congressional maps to unfairly hold on to power and ignore the will of the people. And if the news is any indication, more states might follow suit.

The Supreme Court just heard oral arguments in Louisiana v. Callais over whether the Voting Rights Act is constitutional. Their impending decision will have nationwide implications for fair maps.

And behind the scenes, the Trump administration is making efforts to hijack one of the most important tools for determining fair representation: The U.S. Census.

This is an urgent moment that requires urgent support. We have to be ready to respond as a movement. Will you make a donation to help us defeat these attacks and protect democracy? [[link removed]]

Listen: I get it. There’s a lot going on right now. Anti-democracy forces want to overwhelm us with their incessant efforts. We can’t let them.

In less than a year, Trump and other extremists have unleashed a whirlwind of attacks on the census, one of the foundations of our democracy:

* The Trump administration removed census data from the internet that is normally available to the public.
* Four conservative states filed a lawsuit against the Census Bureau, asking the court to order the Bureau to exclude undocumented persons and people with temporary visas.
* Anti-democracy lawmakers have proposed multiple bills aimed at excluding residents without U.S. citizenship from the 2030 Census.

The census is supposed to count all of the people living in our country. It’s meant to be an accurate count of the entire population. Not only does it determine how much representation each state has in the House of Representatives, it also determines state funding for critical programs, including improving public schools and fixing potholes.

But if extremists get their way, they’ll hijack the census in a blatant power grab. I know we know we can defeat this attack, because the last time they tried to undermine the census, we won. But we’ll have our work cut out for us to make it happen. We need to be ready to get the word out about the importance of the census.

Donate today to support the movement fighting to protect the census and ensure fair representation. [[link removed]]
