Folks, Indiana House Republicans just passed one of the most egregiously gerrymandered maps in the country, turning every single blue seat in the state into a ruby red stronghold.
Let’s be clear: This comes at the behest of Donald Trump, who threatened to help primary any Indiana Republican who didn’t support this gerrymander and attacked Indiana Governor Mike Braun on Truth Social.
And instead of standing up for fair elections, Indiana Republicans rolled over and handed Trump exactly what he wanted — a congressional map engineered to silence Democratic voters.
This isn’t representation. It’s sabotage.
Communities are being carved up, diluted, and rearranged like political chess pieces, all to guarantee Republicans win before a single vote is cast. If they get away with this here, GOP legislatures across the country will follow the playbook.
We can’t afford to sit back while our democracy is rigged in broad daylight. That’s why we’re mobilizing supporters nationwide to speak out right now. This map still has to be approved by the state Senate and with enough pressure we can make sure that doesn’t happen.
Every signature sends a message. Every voice counts. And together, we can show Republicans that voters — not politicians — should choose the elected officials.
– Forward Blue
