“‘The Republican State Leadership Committee is planning to spend over $5 million in state supreme court races in 2022,’ said Andrew Romeo, a spokesman for the group. Key races in North Carolina, Michigan, Ohio, and Illinois are where funds are being targeted.
‘We figured out when it comes to redistricting, it's no longer enough to control state legislative chambers,’ Romeo said.” |
“It's no longer enough to control state legislative chambers,” he said. So now Republicans are trying to control state courts, too, stacking them with justices who will rubber stamp their agenda the way they stacked the U.S. Supreme Court.
And the consequences could go far beyond redistricting — to affect abortion rights, LGBTQ rights, and even the right to vote.
We have to stop the GOP from taking over state courts and hijacking our democracy, and with 30 states holding elections in 2022, this is the year to do it. Will you support the NDRC's expanded electoral program and all of our work?
