Donald Trump is celebrating because he thinks the Supreme Court handed his party a permanent advantage. Fortunately, Trump is wrong! An analysis by Fair Fight Action, the leading nationwide voting and civil rights organization, shows Democrats can create as many as 22 new blue U.S. House seats across seven blue and swing states by 2028. That's right. If Democratic party leaders, governors, and state legislators stop hesitating and redistrict aggressively in New York, Colorado, Maryland, Oregon, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania, they can fully neutralize the GOP's projected 19-seat gain across the South. Republicans are already moving at record pace. They're targeting Black representation, Democratic voters, and the congressional districts that still give working people a voice in states like Tennessee, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, and South Carolina. If Democrats treat this like a normal policy disagreement, Republicans will use the Supreme Court's ruling to lock in minority rule for years. This doesn't have to be the only way Democrats fight back. Democrats must use every tool they have to defend democracy, especially protecting the voting power of under-served communities. That means passing a new Voting Rights Act, creating national standards for nonpartisan redistricting after the next census, and many other reforms that will protect our democracy. But none of that is possible if Republicans redistrict Democrats out of power for the next several decades. Sign our urgent petition now. Tell the Democratic National Committee, House Democratic leaders, governors, and elected officials in target states: Redistrict now, fight back against the GOP's power grab, and use every legal tool available to create new Democratic House seats before Republicans lock in control. https://actionnetwork.org/forms/tell-democratic-leaders-to-redistrict-sms
