In response to Donald Trump’s push to rig congressional maps in Texas and beyond, California’s Democratic leaders are launching a proactive redistricting strategy to defend democracy and protect representation for millions. Their plan could flip up to five GOP-held seats and safeguard congressional oversight from Trump’s relentless attacks. This isn’t politics as usual — it’s a powerful response to a coordinated campaign to silence voters, especially in communities of color. With Governor Gavin Newsom, voting rights advocates, and congressional Democrats aligned, California is leading the charge to push back against partisan manipulation and protect the voice of the people. Now, the fight moves to the voters. If this plan advances, California will ask its people to approve new maps that reflect fairness, representation, and resistance to authoritarian overreach. Add your name to applaud California for fighting back and showing the country that Trump’s power grabs won’t go unchecked.
