John,Eric has said it before and he’ll say it again: if Republicans win, the 2022 midterms could be our last election.

Republicans are months away from rigging a decades-worth of elections through redistricting. And between now and January 17th, the U.S. Senate is going to vote on whether to do something about it.

Our democracy will not survive more GOP leadership, John. We need the Senate to take action now . [[link removed]]

TELL THE SENATE: END THE FILIBUSTER TO PROTECT VOTING RIGHTS [[link removed]]

As our country becomes increasingly diverse, states that were once considered Republican strongholds — like Texas and Georgia — are now becoming toss-up states. But by manipulating the process of congressional redistricting required by the Constitution every 10 years, Republicans will win a permanent congressional majority. Unless the Senate takes action.

Texas, for example, has gained about 4 million people in total population in the past 10 years — with 95% of that population being people of color. Yet, despite people of color fueling the growth over the past decade, there were no new majority minority districts drawn in Texas.

A year ago this week, Georgians voted to send two Democratic Senators to Congress. Georgia has become a quintessential battleground state, but thanks to Republican gerrymandering, Republicans are expected to win 9 or 10 of Georgia’s 14 congressional seats.

Both the Freedom to Vote Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act would ban partisan gerrymandering and strengthen voting protections for communities of color, ensuring that Americans are able to confidently participate in free and fair elections for decades to come. But Republican opposition and the continued strength of the Jim Crow era filibuster threaten to prevent these critical measures from passing the Senate.

Will you sign this petition to tell the Senate to end the filibuster and immediately pass critical voting rights legislation to end partisan gerrymandering? [[link removed]]

In a democracy, voters should select their elected officials and not the other way around.
