The GOP supermajority in the Kansas legislature controls our redistricting process, and the new map they’re sending to the governor’s desk is, frankly, appalling.
The map would dilute the voting power of Black and Latino communities in and around Kansas City by splitting Wyandotte County — a county made up of mostly minority voters — between two districts, despite pleas from Wyandotte residents
not to break up their communities.
This is
unacceptable, and we need your help to ensure voters of color are not silenced at the ballot box.

Black Americans like me have endured these attacks before. We know that these attempts by the Kansas GOP to silence voters of color are simply a continuation of the same attacks on voting rights that the Civil Rights Movement fought so hard to defeat over half a century ago.
With the midterm election approaching fast, the stakes are higher than ever when it comes to fighting voter suppression tactics, and we have no time to waste. We will not let the voices of Black and Brown voters be silenced by the Kansas GOP.
Our votes matter.
