John,

There’s one simple reason why Republicans are manipulating district lines everywhere from Texas to Missouri to North Carolina: They know they have to cheat to win. Their policies are unpopular, and their politicians are terrified of the will of the people. So instead, they’re trying to rig the rules of the game so they can’t lose.

No one puts this better than Rep. Sharice Davids, the lone Democrat representing Kansas in Congress whose seat Kansas Republicans are threatening to redraw in order to defeat her. 

Right now, voters in states across this country are filled with that righteous anger about attempts to take away their power. Help the NDRC channel this fight into a laser-focused strategy to push back on Republican redistricting attempts and ensure every voter’s voice is heard in 2026 and beyond.

Together, we can fight for fair maps that allow the will of the people to be heard. That’s what democracy is all about.
