End Gerrymandering: Stop letting partisan politicians silence voters
U.S. Congress
We know that when power-hungry politicians can rig maps and hand-pick their voters, they prioritize defending their own jobs – not communities’ needs.
And their dirty political tricks have real-life consequences. Unfair maps deny voters a meaningful say in our democracy and keep people from getting the representation and resources they deserve.
If Congress doesn’t respond, the very same extremists behind today's wave of vote-suppressing state laws will keep taking map-rigging to new levels. And thanks to advancements in technology, they’re now able to draw maps that silence voters – especially Black and brown voters – with surgical precision.
Here’s what we can do about it: Congress needs to pass the Freedom to Vote Act, which includes proven solutions to end partisan gerrymandering once and for all. But all too often, the anti-democracy filibuster has been used to stop this and other pro-voter legislation.
If you agree that Congress must do whatever it takes to end gerrymandering – including abolishing the anti-democracy filibuster – add your name today.

Every 10 years, legislatures in states across the country try to enact dangerous, gerrymandered district maps – silencing voters to protect their own political power.
This is NOT how our democracy is supposed to work. I urge Congress to put an end to gerrymandering by doing whatever it takes to pass sweeping pro-voter legislation – including abolishing the anti-democracy filibuster.
