  1. 🗺️ Voters should choose leaders — not the other way around. Take action today: tell Congress to ban partisan gerrymandering nationwide and set fair map standards before politicians lock in power for themselves. civicshout.com/p/tell-congr... #FairMaps #VotingRights

  2. 📣 Add your name now to tell Congress: protect every voter from racial gerrymandering. No community should have its voting power diluted so politicians can control outcomes before ballots are even cast. civicshout.com/p/maga-justi... #CivilRights #FairMaps

  4. ⚖️ Show up on May 16 to defend the freedom to vote. The civil rights heroes who marched, organized, bled, and refused to bow did not sacrifice so politicians could rig maps and call it democracy. blackpowerwarroom.com/dayofaction/... #FairMaps #CivilRights

  5. Joined @wral.bsky.social to speak out against the NC GOP’s new gerrymandered map — a direct attack on free and fair elections in North Carolina. Every voter deserves a voice. #FairMaps #ncpol

  6. To get this near iron-clad gerrymander, the #Missouri #GOP has to cram Dem voters into CD1 (overweighting it like 80/20 D/R) while dividing #KC into slices. The Kansas City public school district would be divided among THREE Congressional Districts. #FairMaps.

  7. Another win for Voting Rights! This week in Louisiana, a new congressional map was signed into law creating two majority-Black U.S. House districts. A federal court found that the old map violated Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act. #FairMaps @NAACP_LDF @ACLU @LWVLouisiana

  8. San Francisco deserves the best possible redistricting process!

    “We really see this as an important step forward for building a stronger, more inclusive democracy in San Francisco. One that all residents can trust and have faith in.” Sietse Goffard, Asian Law Caucus

  9. Great news!🎉 The Elections Commission unanimously voted to pass its redistricting reform recommendations (one commissioner was absent). The final recommendations will be sent to the supervisors and shared with the public in the new year.

    If you contacted the commission in support of independent, community-centered redistricting, THANK YOU!

  12. Texas VICTORY. Federal judge rules maps racially discriminate & violate #VotingRightsAct, Section 2.

    South Carolina PENDING. #SCOTUS to decide whether districts are awful, but lawful based on defense that gerrymanders rely on party, not race.

  13. After three Supreme Court rulings and unprecedented defiance, Alabama finally has a fair and representative congressional map with a second Black-opportunity district in place for the 2024 elections. Virginia votes in 29 days. Every seat in the state Senate and House is up for grabs. Virginia will be voting on the future of voting and reproductive rights, gun safety, educational equity and so much more. #FairFight #FairMaps #VotingRights #JohnLewisVoting

  14. We are scratching our heads. Ohio has just adopted new legislative maps securing supermajorities in both state Senate & House. That's one-party rule. We are waiting to see if a citizen-led redistricting commission can pull this out of the fire. #FairMaps #GenZ @VotersTomorrow
