6 hours until our deadline

And six things we want you to remember about the state of redistricting this week.

We have less than six hours before our first fundraising deadline since the Census Bureau released redistricting data this week. Will you match our average grassroots donation during this fundraising drive by donating $34.93?

In the final hours before this deadline, we wanted to give you a quick recap of six things that members of the All On The Line team said this week!

President Obama: "Our opponents plan to use the redistricting process to further manipulate the maps and entrench themselves in power -- they've made their intentions clear. And unless we stop them, they will draw maps that ensure victories in Congress and state legislatures without having to earn more votes."

» » »

A.G. Holder: "Extreme, partisan politicians have been waiting for this data delivery to begin their map manipulation schemes."
» » »

John Bisognano, Executive Director: "This will be the first redistricting cycle in decades without the Voting Rights Act preclearance -- thanks to Chief Justice Roberts and other conservatives on the Supreme Court -- severely limiting the federal government's ability to intervene to stop inappropriate map manipulation."
» » »

Saumya Narechania, Campaign Manager: "We are already seeing attempts at map manipulation. Before the Census Bureau released the redistricting data, conservatives were already trying to stack the deck in their favor."
» » »

Claire Low, Director of Targeting and Analytics: "With the 2020 Census delay, many states are under tight constitutional or electoral deadlines for the upcoming 2022 elections. As a result, some maps could be passed as soon as September!"
» » »

Jake Henry, Mobilization and Grassroots Fundraising Strategist: "Since we're working on a condensed timeline, All On The Line will be forced to focus its attention and finite resources on dozens of states all at the same time."

Make a donation before our fundraising deadline at midnight.
 

We've been preparing for this moment for a long time. But now the fight is here -- we're already squarely in the fight in states like Michigan and North Carolina. And we are weeks away from seeing maps in states like Ohio.

Our team believes we can achieve fair maps, but it's going to take a strong grassroots effort in every state fighting for transparency, accountability, and fairness.

Thanks for being part of this movement,
The AOTL Team
