| 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. So please: Will you help the NDRC keep fighting with a donation of any amount today? | If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: | | | | | | | | | | As President Obama recently reminded us, "Redistricting is no longer a once-a-decade event.

He's absolutely right. If you're still with us, we hope you'll pitch in now.

"We're going to have to go state by state…" | | | | | Diane,
Earlier this month, Ohio officially implemented some of the strictest voting restrictions in the country. The new legislation will make it harder to vote by mail and will likely have a disproportionate impact on low-income communities, older voters, and those with disabilities.
And it's not just Ohio. Republicans in states like Arizona, Georgia, and Texas are also working to pass new voting laws ahead of the 2024 election.
These attacks on ballot access are troubling – but they also call to mind what Attorney General Eric Holder said not that long ago:  | In fact, going state by state has been our strategy since we launched the NDRC in 2017. We knew that organizing in the states was the only way to undo Republicans' awful 2011 gerrymanders and protect ballot access.
Thanks to supporters like you, our work is paying off. For instance, NPR reported that "Michigan Democrats are getting their way for the first time in nearly 40 years." Our movement helped secure fair maps in Michigan, which made it possible for Democrats to win full control of state government. Now, Michigan Democrats are working to expand voting access – and the same is also true in states like Minnesota and Pennsylvania.
This progress is possible because of our fight for fairness, Diane. But as President Obama said recently, "The movement doesn't stop here."
In key states across the country, the battle of redistricting is ongoing, and more than a dozen congressional districts could shift before the next election. Also, election deniers are scrambling to pass new voting restrictions that could limit ballot access in 2024.
That's why the NDRC is committed to continue fighting to strengthen our democracy nationwide.
