This is one of my longer emails

[National Democratic Redistricting Committee] {NAME}, I've been extremely busy working to execute our 2021 strategy to prevent Republican gerrymandering and voter suppression! I'd love to tell you all about it -- but if you don't have time to read this whole email and would like to make a donation now, [you can do that here](. So what have we been up to? First things first: Redistricting has begun. That means everything we've done for the past four years has led up to this moment. Let's recap some of that work: We helped Democrats win elections in 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020 to make sure they get a seat at the table for redistricting. We helped ensure that, unlike in 2011, Republicans don't have a lock on the entire process. We also supported several states in passing redistricting reforms, which will mean more fairness in the next decade's worth of elections. I couldn't be prouder of everything we've accomplished together with the help of this community. Here's where we are now. We know that despite our achievements, Republicans are eager to manipulate the maps again. In a number of states (like Texas, for example) they think they'll be able to get away with it. Our job is to prove them wrong. And to do that, we're working across the country and honing in on 15 battleground states where we will work diligently and carefully to get the fairest possible maps. [Help us out with a donation if you can.]( There are a couple of extra challenges. First, this year the redistricting process is likely to be truncated because of COVID-19 related delays in getting states the census data. That means we have to be even more vigilant to prevent Republicans from pushing through manipulated maps without any accountability or transparency. At the same time, GOP legislators are working overtime to pass harmful voter suppression bills -- we have to call attention to this coordinated campaign to block access to the ballot box. Finally, there's action on the federal level, too: The democracy reform For the People Act just passed in the House and we need to get it through the Senate. Is it a lot of work? Yes. But hard things are hard. When A.G. Holder launched the NDRC with the support of President Obama, he knew there would be obstacles. So far we've overcome every one of them with your help -- and I know the same will be true in 2021. {NAME}, if you believe in the work we're doing to restore our democracy and make sure everyone has an equal say in the direction of our country, I'm asking you to make a donation today to support the NDRC.
