‌John -- We don’t typically put much faith in the conservative majority on the Supreme Court to protect our democracy, but they surprised us on this one:

VOX: Republicans face a significant, but temporary, defeat in the Supreme Court
The Supreme Court handed down a pair of orders Monday evening that leave in place congressional maps drawn by the North Carolina and Pennsylvania Supreme Courts -- although both orders could prove to be very temporary.”

This is a huge win for fair redistricting in North Carolina and Pennsylvania. Voters in these states will be able to vote in fair congressional districts this cycle -- a win for democracy.

Here’s the thing -- while the Supreme Court decided not to intervene on these maps before the midterm elections, they left the door open for future challenges on maps.

It’s becoming more and more apparent that this decade’s maps might not all be finalized in 2022. We set a mid-month goal of raising $25,000 to prepare for the work ahead. Will you make a donation right now to support our efforts?

The conservative majority on the United States Supreme Court has a track record of supporting Republicans determined to undermine our democracy.

→ In the 2019 Rucho decision, the Supreme Court refused to weigh in and put guardrails on partisan gerrymandering.
→ At the beginning of the pandemic, the Court refused to extend Wisconsin’s deadline for submitting absentee ballots.
→ And just last month, the Court refused to intervene on a map that blatantly discriminated against Black voters in Alabama.

We should celebrate this win for voters in North Carolina and Pennsylvania. But there are four states that have not finished their map-drawing process yet -- and many where voters are still challenging gerrymandered maps or defending fair maps in court.

Can we count on you to pitch in and support our movement?
