John -- The Texas State Legislature just voted to pass a gerrymandered congressional map -- and now it's headed to Governor Abbott's desk.
The map reduces the number of competitive districts from 11 to one and fails to create new Black and Latino districts despite population growth trends in the 2020 census data.
Texas Governor Greg Abbott has yet to sign the gerrymandered legislative and congressional maps. The window of opportunity to demand accountability is open. We’re in the midst of a five-figure accountability ad campaign to demand a veto, but we need to throw everything we can at impacting this process.

The population trends from the most recent census data are only easy to ignore if you’re only interested in maintaining power. What’s happening in Texas is just another blatantly partisan attempt by the GOP to hold majority control while ignoring demographic facts.
It’s why we’ve trained and mobilized hundreds to speak out against these maps. It’s why we’re reminding Texans that Governor Abbott doesn’t need to sign this gerrymander into law. It’s why we’ve had boots on the ground in the state for nearly two years now. Fair maps are worth fighting for.
Will you make a contribution -- of whatever makes the most sense to you -- today? Your donation will help stop conservative map drawers who “are willing to attack our representative democracy through rampant gerrymandering” in Texas and across the country.
