Rep. Carney “Have we ever drawn a map that was requested by the President of United States."

Senator Hise, "I am not aware of a map that the President has commented on before.. I will say I received no direct communication or directives to draw this map." #ncpol
Every time districts are redrawn for political gain, accountability erodes and voter trust weakens. Real reform means independent redistricting and fair representation for every community in North Carolina. #ncga #ncpol
At a time when families face rising costs, teacher shortages, and unaffordable healthcare, constant fights over political maps drain attention from real solutions. Let’s fix what matters most: fair representation and strong communities. #NCDeservesBetter #ncga
When maps become tools of power instead of tools of representation, democracy suffers. North Carolina deserves an independent redistricting process that puts people, not politics first. #ncga
Districts are redrawn in only two situations: after the census to rebalance populations and uphold the 14th Amendment’s “one person, one vote” principle, or when a court orders changes to fix legal violations.
What’s happening now is neither. #ncga
District lines should reflect people and communities, not political interests. After four congressional redraws in just five years, North Carolina needs stability, fairness, and accountability. Voters should choose their representatives, not the other way around. #ncga
For decades, NCians have faced barriers to fair representation, from restrictive voting laws to maps that divide communities. Today, the challenge has evolved: efforts to change the rules of democracy itself. Fair maps belong to the people, not to politicians. #ncga
Our Executive Director, Melissa Price Kromm, was quoted in @NCNewsline’s latest piece on North Carolina’s redistricting fight:

“These new redistricting wars aren’t about fairness; they’re about power.”

Martin Luther King Jr. warned that when rights are violated in one place, it endangers justice everywhere—because oppression and authoritarianism spread if left unchecked. ✊🏾

NCians: 60 seconds can protect your ballot. Moves or name changes can put you on the Registration Repair list and slow you at the polls. Check: ncsbe.gov/registrationrepair. If listed, repair with your NC license or DMV ID or last 4 of SSN. Tell a friend.
Trump and North Carolina Republicans are manufacturing chaos to seize permanent power. That’s not democracy — that’s dictatorship. The American people want safe, fair, and accessible elections — not fear, intimidation, and endless hurdles.
Nationally, Trump has announced he will sign an Executive Order to eliminate vote-by-mail, replace voting machines with federally approved ones, and impose federal oversight of state elections. This is not reform — it’s an attempted hostile takeover of fair elections.

Republicans tried to overturn Justice Riggs’s win, lock in gerrymanders, strip Governor’s powers, and target judicial independence. Now, HB958 is their latest voter suppression attempt, making it harder for NCians to register and vote.
🚨 28 hate groups are active in North Carolina.
They’re organizing, spreading disinfo, and targeting our schools, elections, and communities.

This isn’t fringe—it’s coordinated.

📢 Share this. Show up. Fight back.
We won’t be divided. We won’t be silenced.

This isn't even foxes guarding the hen house, y'all.

This is the foxes broke in, ate all the chickens, & are now living in the hen house.

Justice Allison Riggs WON HER ELECTION by 734 votes. PERIOD.

*AND* she re-won twice via two recounts. PERIOD. #RiggsWon #ncpol

Tell Congress to stop voter suppression and vote NO on the SAVE Act! It would limit access to the polls by enacting the most restrictive voter ID requirement this country has ever seen. #votingrights #stopthesaveact #democracy #voters #stopvotersuppression
