Hey folks, it's me again. Look, I'll be honest with you: We're still short of the $176,000 we set out to raise before the end of the quarter. The quarter that ends tonight. So I'm reaching out to our top supporters one more time. I'm so proud to have been with the NDRC team for the last four years and of everything we've achieved. But now would be the worst time to see our support falter. Tonight is the last big fundraising deadline before maps could start getting signed into law in key swing states! People like you are our last barrier against gerrymandering. Pres. Obama said that he believes activism will win out over cynicism, but whether he's right depends on what we can get done together. Please, before the end-of-quarter deadline, chip in whatever you can to help us fight for our democracy.

---------- Forwarded message --------- President Obama said in his email to you yesterday that there are only a few months left to make a difference in the redistricting process. We're about to wrap up one of those months tonight, and I'm hoping we end it out with a $15 donation from you, Diane. Our grassroots support is one of the most important things that distinguish us from the forces working to gerrymander our maps. You can use the button below to make a contribution that strengthens our movement before we close the books on September. I appreciate all you do for us, Isa ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: President Obama Subject: I'm asking you Date: Wednesday, September 29, 2021 Friend, let me explain why I'm asking you to pitch in $15 today. Redistricting has officially begun and we know two things: some politicians are doing everything they can to manipulate maps and Americans everywhere are determined to stop them. Every issue we care about -- from income inequality and health care to climate policy -- depends on the results of this redistricting process. And with maps being finalized in major swing states by the end of October, we have a once-in-a-decade chance to get our leaders to do the right thing. That's why I have to ask: Will you make a donation to All On The Line today to help them protect our democracy? Every dollar supports their work to secure fair electoral districts for our country. If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: | | | | | | | All On The Line is working to get lawmakers in states like Ohio, Texas, and Georgia to draw maps that accurately and fairly reflect the state's population. If they're successful, it will help more people make their voices heard and allow us to make progress on the biggest issues of our time. I believe in All On The Line's mission and their will to win this fight. I've seen their state-by-state strategy to secure fair maps in action and I've experienced the tremendous power of the grassroots community behind it. You're a part of that community and we can't get this done without you. Right now, state legislators and special interests are trying to lock ordinary Americans out of the electoral process. But with focus, persistence, and, yes, a little bit of hope, I know we can put power back in the hands of the people. That's why I'm asking you to pitch in and help All On The Line's work to end gerrymandering across the country. Any amount you're able to give today will make an impact. There are only a few months left to make a difference in this redistricting process and help shape the direction of this country over the next decade. Let's do what we can right now. Thank you, Barack Obama All On The Line is the grassroots advocacy campaign supported by the National Redistricting Action Fund. Support our work to end gerrymandering.
From The Daily (New York Times) podcast: | We're worried, Diane: San Diego Tribune: "Democrats should fear a 2022 House wipeout" | | From The Daily (New York Times) podcast: "In places like Texas and Florida and North Carolina, [Republicans] are going to be coming out looking to press their advantage as far as they can this [redistricting] cycle. And that could be across the country, maybe up to a dozen seats. Enough to tip the balance in a House of Representatives that is really divided by a razor-thin margin." There you have it, folks. If we can't stop the GOP, they can cheat their way to the House majority and obstruct President Biden's agenda the same way they obstructed President Obama's 10 years ago! The NDRC is fighting hard to shed light on Republican gerrymanders and demand fair maps, but unless we hit our $176,000 end-of-quarter goal, our efforts could be in jeopardy. Will you rush an immediate gift to help us get there before Thursday's deadline?
