Let's talk about the Supreme Court, John.

Last month, a 5-4 majority decision allowed Alabama's 2022 election to take place on a congressional map determined by a lower court to dilute the equal voting power of minority voters. Bad news.

But then, two more redistricting cases came before the Supreme Court, and the justices made a different decision:

Tweet from the NDRC that reads: 'ICYMI—SCOTUS refused to grant emergency relief to Republicans in North Carolina and Pennsylvania who were making a last-ditch effort to block fair maps approved by their state supreme courts. This means the ‘22 congressional elections in these states will be held on #FairMaps'

Help us end GOP gerrymandering!

Takeaway #1: We never know how SCOTUS is going to rule. So, with our affiliates, we’re planning to keep doing what we’re doing, which is challenging manipulated maps everywhere we can, in every way we can. Will you help?

Takeaway #2: The GOP is willing to do anything to keep gerrymandering. As A.G. Holder said:

“Republicans are making it quite clear that they will do whatever it takes – even if it means eroding our federalist system as we know it – to circumvent the will of the people so they can lock in their own power.”

We don't know how this will end, John. All we know is that we have to keep doing everything we can, on the ground, in the courts, and at the ballot box, to defend fair maps and prevent gerrymandering across the country.

Pitch in!

Thank you,
Team NDRC
