Dear MoveOn member,
You and I both knew they were coming for our elections. And now it's happening. Right now. Today.
On Thursday, Louisiana's MAGA governor suspended his state's congressional elections—in the middle of the elections.1 Not before ballots went out. After. He looked at an election already in motion and postponed it.
Why? To rush through a new gerrymandered map designed to wipe out majority-Black congressional districts and hand Republicans seats they couldn't win fairly.
He did it just hours after the MAGA Supreme Court gutted what remained of the Voting Rights Act—the crown jewel of the Civil Rights Movement, won by people who fought, bled, and died for the right to vote.2
It's a coordinated MAGA power grab, moving at breakneck speed.
Trump is already pressuring other Republican governors to redraw their maps.3 Speaker Mike Johnson is calling for a nationwide redraw that would silence voters of color across the country.4
They are trying to lock in minority rule before we can stop them.
Will you chip in $5 a month to help MoveOn stop them?
Yes, I'll chip in $5 a month. (If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.)
No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
Cassandra, we can stop them—and together, we will. It's exactly what MoveOn is built for.
MoveOn is the largest grassroots progressive organization in the country, with members in every single congressional district. We stopped the red wave in its tracks in the last midterms. We know how to fight, and we know how to win.
This month, we're unveiling our 2026 election plan—built on everything progressives learned from 2024, sharpened for this moment, and designed to take MAGA head-on up and down the ballot.
But we need fuel in the tank right now.
Can you chip in $5 a month to help MoveOn fight back against this blatant power grab—and end MAGA control of Congress just a few short months from now?
Yes, I'll chip in $5 a month. (If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.)
No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
The assault on our democracy is coming from every direction—the executive branch, Congress, state legislatures, the Supreme Court. They're moving in coordination, and they're moving fast.
So are we.
But we need to fight harder than ever starting now—before more maps get redrawn, more votes get silenced, and more elections get suspended.
If we don't elect progressive legislators up and down the ballot this year, this could very well be the last fair election we have for a generation. If MAGA maintains control, they will codify these discriminatory tactics into law and solidify their power for decades.
The urgency has never been greater. Please donate $5 a month to help power the grassroots engine that will dismantle the MAGA stranglehold on our elections.
Yes, I'll chip in $5 a month. (If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.)
No, I'm sorry, I can't make a monthly donation.
Thanks for all you do.
