Diane -- Today is a turning point in the redistricting process. The Census Bureau released the data that states need to draw the next decade of district lines. We'll start to see initial maps using this data in just a few weeks. And a majority of the country's electoral maps could be passed by December.
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.
In anticipation of this moment, the All On The Line team is training thousands of people through their Redistricting U initiative. But while we've been gearing up for this process, conservative politicians have been preparing too -- and they're not going to give up without a fight.
Can I count on you to make a donation -- of any amount -- to All On The Line? This movement's ability to win the fight for fair maps depends on the support of people like you.

This is not only a turning point in the redistricting process, it's also a milestone for our democracy. Republican politicians can use their gerrymandered power to completely stall progress on national democracy reforms like the For the People Act while passing more state laws that limit access to voting -- further tightening their grip on power and limiting voters' ability to hold them accountable.
During the last redistricting process, Republican politicians worked quietly behind the scenes to gerrymander the maps. This time, All On The Line is helping make sure that's not possible by empowering folks like you to demand accountability and transparency in the process and by training people across the country so they know how to effectively advocate for maps that fairly represent their communities.
All On The Line could use your support as we transition into the map-drawing phase of redistricting. Chip in today so we can show that this movement is ready for the fight ahead.
