Diane, Republicans just got called out for their gerrymandering in Kansas! Here's what a state district court had to say about the congressional map that legislative Republicans enacted over the veto of Democratic Governor Laura Kelly:
"[The map] is also unconstitutional on the independent and distinct ground that it dilutes minority votes in violation of the Kansas Constitution's equal rights and political power clauses."
Every win must be celebrated because redistricting is a state-by-state, case-by-case, and dollar-by-dollar battle between fair map advocates and map manipulators.
The impact of this decision is huge for Kansans, but we need to keep grassroots donations coming in consistently to build on this moment. Will you donate right now to help us reach our $10,000 end-of-month goal before May 1?

This is a court battle that can still impact the 2022 midterm map, and that's one reason why our affiliate, the National Redistricting Foundation, has supported the voters that won this case.
We have to fight the fights of 2022, 2024, and the next decade one day at a time. When you invest in All On The Line, you invest in combating anti-democratic legislators who have proven that they'll play the long game and win it if we aren't constantly vigilant.
When President Obama wrote you yesterday, he said:
"…the gains we've made in this redistricting cycle are fragile. If we don't spend the next several months raising the necessary funds to continue All On The Line's litigation and advocacy work, we could be caught off guard."
-- President Obama in a message to AOTL supporters |
We must protect our gains, Diane. Chip in whatever amount you're able today so that All On The Line can protect our wins and build on them.
Thank you for your dedicated support,
Ted Corcoran, Organizing Director
