What Just Happened: In a truly heinous 5-4 decision, the SCOTUS just upheld the use of partisan gerrymandering.
Why This Matters: This ruling gives GOP representatives the ability to create district maps that give them the upper hand in federal, state, and local races.

Which means, if you’re a progressive voter in a state controlled by Republican legislators, you’re screwed.
How We Fight Back: The courts aren’t going to protect us, so we have to protect ourselves. Now’s the time to recruit, support, and elect state legislators that will stand up to partisan gerrymandering and create fair maps that represent ALL Voters.
