‌John -- By now, you’ve seen the headlines about a “redistricting turnaround” for Democrats. We’re proud to have stopped Republican gerrymandering from running rampant by engaging voters at every stage of the map-drawing process.

But All On The Line’s work must extend far beyond this redistricting cycle, even after the last 2022-election map is finalized. That’s because Republicans have seen the success of fair map advocates this cycle and are now plotting and planning for potential redraws and legal challenges in the next few years.

Republicans are setting their sights on a radical legal theory that could disrupt our entire system of democracy. This theory interprets a clause in the U.S. Constitution to give state legislatures total control over holding federal elections -- that could mean state supreme courts, redistricting commissions, and governors would be powerless to enact, overturn, or veto gerrymandered maps.

Many fair maps wins during this redistricting cycle relied on the balance of governors and the impartiality of state supreme courts to stop the worst abuses by Republican-controlled state legislatures. Gerrymandered maps were overturned by courts in Ohio and North Carolina and vetoed by governors in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

Under this legal theory, these wins may not have been possible.

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.”

A.G. Holder makes it clear, John. We can’t let our foot off the gas -- not when Republicans are finding creative ways to institutionalize gerrymandered maps AND when members of the Supreme Court have shown their willingness to support them.

We need your help to counter these Republican plans in order to protect fair redistricting in the years to come. Are you in?
