John,

At the end of this 2022 strategy update, I'm going to ask you to donate to the NDRC to support our upcoming work. I hope you'll read the whole thing, but if you don't have time, you can click here to make a donation right now.

Here's where we are:

1. With 2021 in the books, more than half of the states have adopted new maps. 279 congressional seats have been drawn, with nearly 156 left.

2. The states that have yet to adopt maps include important states like Florida, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, and New York.

3. In a number of states where Republicans have forced through gerrymandered maps, voters have filed lawsuits -- and the NDRC's affiliates are proud to support some of those suits.

4. The U.S. Department of Justice has sued Texas over its manipulated maps.

I'm exceptionally proud of the work we did in 2021, which contributed to states from Colorado to Iowa to Michigan and others adopting fair maps. But as you can see, we still have a mountain of work ahead of us -- and we need to get it done before this year's big midterm elections. So John, I'm asking if you can make a donation to help us stay on track toward fair maps.

Federal legislation is also a HUGE part of our strategy right now. Passage of the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act -- both of which could move in the Senate very soon -- would be a game-changer for our work, giving us better tools to combat gerrymandering, voter suppression, and Republican attempts to undermine our elections. I don’t have to tell you how vital that is.

I’ll close with this: Our work has been getting a lot of attention lately. Some people are surprised by our fair-map victories. New York Magazine reported the other week that “Democrats are Doing Weirdly Well in Redistricting,” but there’s nothing weird about it -- it’s because of the powerful NDRC community that you belong to.

Now we need that community to keep fighting as hard as ever until we achieve all of our goals. Will you pitch in today, John?

To more victories in 2022,

Kelly Burton
