| Diane, if you thought redistricting was over until the next census, think again. According to POLITICO, Republican plans for "ambitious gerrymandering" in key states could have a huge impact on the next election: "Republicans could more than double their five-seat House majority through redistricting alone. That would give Speaker Kevin McCarthy a much-needed cushion in 2024."

Support the fight for fair maps in 2024: Donate to the NDRC >> In states like Ohio, Republicans are fighting to defeat challenges to rigged maps. And in North Carolina, GOP lawmakers are asking the state's highest court to roll back fair maps so the legislature can redraw them – even though the state constitution explicitly prohibits mid-decade redistricting!
It's an unprecedented power grab, Diane. Will you pitch in now to help us fight back nationwide? Help stop GOP map manipulators nationwide: Donate to the NDRC >> Here's the good news: The NDRC's grassroots movement has a proven track record of defeating these kinds of attacks on our democracy.
Earlier this month, fair maps advocates overcame millions in spending from right-wing donors and helped elect a fair-minded justice to Wisconsin's state supreme court. And last November, our movement helped secure what the New York Times called "the fairest House map of the last 40 years."
With more redistricting on the horizon, we have two options: OPTION ONE:
We can do nothing and let the GOP roll back our progress.
Years from now, we'll look back on the 2022 election as the high watermark for fair maps, after which the GOP returned to unchecked gerrymandering.
OPTION TWO:
We can continue fighting for even fairer maps in 2024 and beyond!
Years from now, we can look back and know we did everything we could to strengthen our democracy.
With conservative lawmakers hell-bent on tearing down our fair maps progress, we simply cannot afford to grow complacent.
