This week’s ruling striking down Texas’s Trump-ordered gerrymander was a critical win for voters ahead of 2026.

It’s also a reminder that no gerrymander is untouchable.

Even when Republicans stack the deck against us, the will of voters can still WIN.

Our friends at @swingleft.bsky.social are launching Ground Truth—a new, innovative door-knocking program designed to fix how Democrats connect with voters. Ground Truth is about listening to voters and communities, not lecturing.

🚨BREAKING🚨 : Texas Congressional map STRUCK DOWN by a Federal judge as racial gerrymander!!

Map returns to its prior iteration before Donald Trump picked up the phone and told Greg Abbott he needed him to gerrymander Texas to the most extreme degree.

Great to be with the incomparable @profmmurray.bsky.social at the @texastribune.org festival.

Never underestimate the power of the American people. We need to keep organizing, making our voices heard and pushing back against Republicans efforts to gerrymander & circumvent the will of the people.

Let’s be clear: Republicans launched this gerrymandering crisis — and they've refused to pump the brakes for even a second. They could end this chaos tomorrow. But instead of stopping, they’re doubling down with illegal, unconstitutional maps. And voters aren't having it!

Donald Trump’s plan isn’t about ideas or solutions. It’s about cheating.

That’s not strength — it’s desperation. Republicans are rigging maps because they can’t win fair fights.

But Americans are fighting back. And it’s working.

For our 20th episode of Drawing the Line, we had the legendary @marcelias.bsky.social join us to discuss the current redistricting landscape, the major wins for Democrats we saw last week, and how we're fighting back against Trump's power grab. Watch now: youtu.be/36kumP4hYsU?...

Incredible win for democracy coming out of Utah this morning (ET). The new map will finally reflect what the people want after the polls and asked for back in 2018.

Really amazing work by everyone that never gave up and kept fighting so hard to make this happen!

Trump: We are cutting off food for kids in the US, but must pay $40 billion to Argentina and I need to build my ballroom!!

Senate GOP: HOLD MY BEER, if Dems don't let us make huge cuts to Medicare we are going to make people work on the weekend!

This is like the Out of Touch Olympics...

Speaker Pelosi is a truly historic figure. Her record of accomplishment as Speaker is unparalleled.

And she’s as compassionate as she is tough.

Nancy Pelosi is the GOAT - she will be missed by the nation. And by me.

Speaker Nancy Pelosi, at every turn, showed us how to fight for what we believe in. She had the singular vision to lift us when we were down and broken—and to lead us when we were rising and strong. She's been a believer in the fight for fair maps since Day 1.

After great reflection, and upon trying the alternative, I feel confident in saying that I much prefer winning to losing. It has great benefits. 10/10 would do again. Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

GOP operatives have been melting down about this for weeks.

Bold prediction: 2026 =/= 2024, and basing your gerrymandering and new maps on the GOP surge last year will prove to be a big mistake.

Governor Moore’s proposal for a redraw process in Maryland is a responsible and responsive action to Trump’s demand for extreme and democracy threatening mid-decade gerrymanders in Texas and beyond.

Our democracy is under attack— we have no choice but to defend it.
Today, I’m announcing the Governor’s Redistricting Advisory Commission.

I’ve been clear from Day One: If other states are determining whether or not they have fair maps, so will Maryland.

“If Prop 50 is successful, it should fortify in every Democratic elected official and leader that the voters are on the side of action in order to prevent a Republican takeover of the House of Representatives and the 2026 midterms” says @johnbisognano.com
California’s Prop 50 hugely important. Its approval by voters will not only combat Texas gerrymander but hopefully convince other Dem states to step up & counter Trump’s plan to rig midterms www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
California fights Trump's attempt to steal the midterms
The state can strike the first blow against Trump's plan to subvert democracy.

Instead of spending their time working on behalf of the American people, Republicans are actively spending their time trying to undermine them, decimating voting rights and democracy to hold onto power.
