An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Stop the Rigged Gerrymandering — No New Census Count Mid-Decade!

37 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

This is not a partisan squabble. What’s unfolding is an open, blatant attempt by Donald Trump and his allies to rewrite reality itself — starting with the census. This is election rigging — textbook. If an authoritarian rewrites the census just to redraw maps and tilt the balance of power, that’s not governance. That’s a coup in khakis and a red hat. If Trump redoes the census, it’s not about accuracy — it’s about silencing the voters who threaten his grip on power. It’s about whitewashing the electorate, reshaping districts to erase the will of Black, brown, immigrant, and working-class communities. This is about making sure the GOP is favored in mid term elections next year, while approval is abysmal and the future is uncertain. It is illegal. It is election interference. It is a violation of the Constitution, and of the oath you swore to uphold. So what are you going to do? Sit on your hands while democracy bleeds out in the dirt? Or are you going to fight? We, the people, are watching. I am watching. And I will not forget who stood up — and who stayed quiet — while our very system of representation was hijacked by a man too scared to face a fair vote. This is your moment. Act like it.
