Here are my reflections on the 70th anniversary of the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in #BrownvBoard70 — which, to me, is the foundation for the Civil Rights Movement.

In a year where there is an existential presidential election, we must also focus on the states - and state courts specifically- where a huge number of life impacting decisions are being made. Glad to be working with Planned Parenthood in this effort. nytimes.com/2024/05/20/us/…

#NEW : Planned Parenthood Votes and NDRC have created a joint fund of $5 million to bolster preferred candidates in 2024 state Supreme Court elections

The orgs will initially target races in Arizona, Michigan, Montana, N. Carolina, Ohio and Texas nytimes.com/2024/05/20/us/…

🆕Breaking‼️Louisiana’s congressional map with two majority-Black districts WILL be used for the 2024 elections!

SCOTUS has paused the conservative district court’s decision to strike down the map—paving the way for the state to use the new, fair congressional map.

Yesterday, a federal court struck down Louisiana’s congressional map — a radical decision that threatens to undermine voting rights and representation for Black communities.

It will not go unchallenged.

This year, the NDRC is investing in several state-level elections and backing candidates who are key to stopping anti-democratic agendas—including gerrymandering. I hope you’ll join me in supporting them: democraticredistricting.com/electoral-prio…

A Democratic group led by former Attorney General Eric Holder is looking to play the long game on redistricting, funneling money and political firepower into state-level races this year in hope of influencing future map-drawing cycles. nbcnews.com/politics/2024-…

We are doubling down on our fight for fairness.

There is no cavalry coming, no savior —it’s up to all of us to take action—and reject all anti democracy agendas.

Join NDRC in this important work to safeguard our democracy.

In our ongoing pursuit of fairness—we’re investing in state level races that will provide a critical firewall against GOP gerrymandering, and help safeguard our democracy. Winning these races will be critical to building toward the redistricting cycle. nbcnews.com/politics/2024-…

No one knows how electoral maps can impact voting rights and democracy more than former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, chair of NDRC. Watch to find out his thoughts on South Carolina's congressional map:

Our Executive Director Marina Jenkins (Marina K Jenkins) responds to Callais v. Landry—the lawsuit that was filed to undo Louisiana’s fair congressional map. The outcome of this case could determine the future of Section 2 of the VRA. Stay tuned for more updates via NDRC!

'As the media turns its attention to making this a binary choice between a person who's got some age and cognitive issues - that would be Trump - against somebody who's actually accomplished a lot, I think we'll be just fine.' - Eric Holder #RealTime

Yesterday in Alabama, we saw the power of fair maps. The newly drawn-court ordered-congressional map gave Black voters an opportunity to elect a representative of their choice- resulted in a competitive primary and a 130% increase in voter participation👍🏽 nytimes.com/2024/03/04/us/…

We are on a mission to end partisan gerrymandering and ensure a more representative democracy—and that requires a long term game plan.

Before the 2031 redistricting cycle, we want to make sure we’ve laid the groundwork to ensure a fair + transparent process.

The plan ⬇️

Today, we’re rolling out our 10-Year-Plan to the public.

We firmly believe there’s no longer an “off season” in redistricting.

It is a crucial part of the fight to protect democracy—and it's not over yet.

A letter from our Chairman, AG Eric Holder: rb.gy/qz4m66

Wisconsin made history this week! Governor Tony Evers signed into law new, competitive state legislative maps that get rid of one of the most gerrymandered maps in the country. Wisconsinites will now have a real shot at electing leaders who are responsive to the will of the people.
