John -- Yesterday the Pennsylvania Supreme Court decided to adopt a fair congressional map that voters proposed after Republicans attempted to pass a gerrymandered map.
This is another big victory for the fair map movement. And we are proud to have helped voters in Pennsylvania present a map that fairly reflects the Commonwealth's recent population changes.
We have supported voters in six states who are challenging their state’s gerrymandered maps in court or defending fair maps from partisan manipulation. Will you chip in to support all our work to end gerrymandering?

Here’s what A.G. Holder had to say about this fair map victory: “This is a substantial win for Pennsylvanians who now get to vote for the candidate of their choosing in fair, lawful districts for the next decade.”
In 2012, Republicans leveraged their gerrymandered maps to win 13 of 18 congressional seats -- despite getting significantly fewer votes in congressional elections across the state.
Map manipulators in Pennsylvania have been stopped in their tracks -- for now! The new fair map is currently slated to be the congressional map used in the upcoming 2022 midterm elections, but we must continue to monitor challenges from Republicans.
As more maps are finalized across the country, we will continue to help voters at every step of the redistricting process. The fight for fair maps doesn’t end just because a commission or state legislature passes a gerrymandered map -- we’ll keep fighting until all options are exhausted.
