Huge news, John: Louisiana’s GOP-gerrymandered congressional map was blocked by one judge, and then another court declined to reinstate it!
|
Let’s be clear: This is a big win for Louisianians, especially for Black Louisianians who would have been denied the opportunity to elect their preferred candidates under the GOP’s manipulated map. And it shows that our movement must continue fighting for fairness in every state. Will you chip in to help us do just that?
This decision also shows the important role of courts in preventing gerrymanders. When we heard that Republicans planned to use the 2022 elections to stack state courts with judges who they think will approve their manipulated maps, we sprang into action to protect our critical independent judiciary.
Tomorrow, we’ll be announcing another strategy through which the NDRC is getting involved in the 2022 elections. We’re planning to target races in more than a dozen states – including judicial races – that will impact the future of fair redistricting and our democracy.
You can help us get a head start by rushing a donation today! Let’s celebrate this victory in Louisiana and help usher in many victories to come nationwide by making the fair redistricting movement stronger than ever.
Will you chip in, John?
