Friend,
Last summer, SCOTUS ruled that federal courts won't limit partisan gerrymandering. This year, the court allowed a ruling to stand that Floridians with former felony convictions are to pay fines before voting -- essentially a modern-day poll tax.
Now Trump has nominated a third, and potentially more extreme, justice to the bench, a move that could undermine our elections for a generation. This latest development makes evident what A.G. Holder has been saying for years: We can't rely on a single court decision to end voter suppression and partisan gerrymandering. Instead, we have to go state-by-state to fight it. Will you chip in today to help the NDRC invest in target states this fall?

Going state-by-state means flipping state legislatures across the country so Democrats have a seat at the table during redistricting. These elections will shape the balance of power in our country for the next ten years.
The NDRC has already invested more than $2.5 million in its target states, but in the battle for key state legislatures, Democrats are still trailing the Republican's fundraising machine. That's why we've set a goal of raising $85,000 by the end of September. Will you help us reach our goal so we can invest more in battleground states?
Since 2017, the NDRC has executed a comprehensive redistricting strategy that shifts the redistricting power, creating fair districts where Democrats can compete. Our victories have been made possible by our strong community of grassroots supporters. But 2020 will be our most important -- and toughest -- year yet. It's the last year before redistricting, which means it's our last chance to elect the Democrats we trust to fight for fair maps.
