Friend,
This week we learned that while states like Texas and Florida will gain congressional seats in the 2022 election, Michigan will lose a seat.
Michigan’s congressional districts will be redrawn by a nonpartisan commission and we won’t know for some time what the map will look like. But we do know that at least one member of Michigan’s congressional delegation won’t be returning to Congress in 2023.
We need to have Rashida’s back and start preparing for her reelection now. We can’t afford to lose her leadership and her voice in the fight for working people and marginalized communities. Donate today to prepare for the fight ahead.
Representation matters. That’s why Rashida fought to ensure as many people as possible took the census last year, which determines how many people live in places and therefore how many people represent them in the federal government. It also affects resource allocation.
After the Trump administration botched the census and severely undercounted major cities across the country, including Detroit, Rashida took action. She led a bicameral (House and Senate) letter to the Trump administration’s Census Director expressing concerns and raised alarms about the process.
And, even as it’s clear that Michiganders will lose one seat in Congress, Rashida is fighting to ensure that this does not result in a reduction of services and resources for her residents.
Now, we have to make sure she doesn't lose her seat. She's been a necessary bold voice for the transformational change we urgently need.
Let’s not lose a founding member of the Squad just as we’re building our collective power, together.
Donate today to Rashida’s reelection campaign to ensure that, even as Michigan loses a congressional seat, we keep Rashida’s voice and vision in Congress.

Thank you for always having Rashida’s back,
Team Rashida
