Emily, Donald Trump is so terrified about Republicans losing power next year that he's trying to rig the game at halftime with gerrymandered maps in places like Texas. For months, we promised that if Republicans wanted a showdown, they would get a showdown. Well, last week, Gavin Newsom and California Democrats sent a booming message to the entire country: We are done fighting with one arm tied behind our back. California Democrats have called for a special election to pass the Election Rigging Response Act — which will redraw the state's maps and defend fair representation in our country. This is a game changer. The Election Rigging Response Act will level the playing field and help ensure voters decide who runs the House of Representatives — not Donald Trump. The DNC will support this ballot measure every step of the way, but with Republicans undoubtedly about to throw everything they've got at stopping it, I'm personally asking you to contribute to help Democrats win: $3 to help defend our democracy. $3 to ensure voters pick their representatives, not the other way around. $3 to make sure Trump can't rig the 2026 election to prevent us from electing a Democratic House of Representatives. Please use this link to pitch in $3 — or any amount that makes sense for you — today. We're looking for a lot of contributions today to send a powerful message to Trump about the strength of our opposition. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly. We can't — and won't — let Trump rig his way through the midterms. But we can only do it with your help. Thank you, Ken Ken Martin

While we have your attention…   | Emily, You may have seen that California Governor Gavin Newsom succeeded in calling for a special election to redraw the state's maps and defend fair representation. Here's the information you deserve to know: Donald Trump and his allies are seeing the polls, and they're hearing the anger from people all over the country. They know their agenda is historically unpopular, and so they're trying to rig the 2026 elections in their favor. That's why Republicans in Texas just passed a gerrymandered congressional map that could give them FIVE extra seats. And it's why Republicans in states like Indiana and Missouri are looking to follow suit. But Democrats are fighting back. In California, Governor Newsom just signed the Election Rigging Response Act, in an effort to level the playing field and help make sure voters determine who controls the House of Representatives — not Donald Trump. We can't stand back and watch our democracy disappear district by district and state by state. We all have a role to play in fighting back. That's why Democrats are using every tool at our disposal to fight back against Republicans' gerrymandering schemes. If this work matters to you, pitch in $3 to support the Democratic Party today:

This fight isn't going to be easy, but we're fighting like hell to make sure we win | Emily, please don't scroll past this quick read. If you've been following the news on Trump's attempts to rig the 2026 midterms, you know that this is a code red emergency for our democracy.
But we also want you to know this: Democrats are fighting fire with fire.
In Texas, House Democrats just ended a heroic two-week walkout, successfully breaking quorum on Gov. Abbott's first special session to pass gerrymandered maps that would give Republicans FIVE new congressional seats.
And in California, Gavin Newsom just signed legislation calling for a statewide ballot measure to counter Republicans' gerrymandering scheme in Texas, both leveling the playing field and letting the people decide their state's path forward.
This fight to preserve our democracy isn't going to be easy, but we're fighting like hell to make sure we win. At the DNC, we're committed to investing in Democratic parties across the country — including California and Texas — to make sure they have the resources they need to fight the Trump administration and its GOP cronies in the states.
If this work matters to you, please consider pitching in $3 to the DNC today to help fund Democrats' fight to protect our democracy. If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly. Thank you for standing with us,

| Emily, Trump just said he wants to steal 100 more congressional seats ahead of the 2026 midterms: 
Republicans' gerrymandered map in Texas was just the beginning. Already, we're seeing his allies in other Republican-dominated states like Florida and Missouri beginning to look at redistricting their own states. In Missouri's case, lawmakers have already called for these discussions, despite pushback from their Democratic colleagues. On top of that, Trump is tying these plans directly to his push to end mail-in voting, in a direct assault on our democracy. Here's the truth: Republicans know they can't win fair and square in 2026, so they're using every tool in their belt to rig the midterms and keep themselves in power. In California, Democrats are advancing their own redistricting plan in opposition, but the work doesn't end there. The DNC is already suing Trump for his attacks on voting rights, and we are doubling down on expanding our organizing work to make sure folks are ready to vote like their rights depend on it — because they do. If protecting voting rights and stopping Trump's plan to steal next year's midterms is worth $3 to you, that's the donation we're asking you to make to the DNC today to help us fund this work nationwide.

| Emily, We're about to ask you to donate directly to the DNC. If you give us a moment of your time, we'll explain why your support is so important right now. Here's the situation: President Trump and Republicans are trying to dismantle our democracy piece by piece, by gutting our federal agencies, redrawing congressional maps, threatening to end vote-by-mail, and more. And right now, Trump and his allies would love nothing more than to see that Democrats are exhausted and ready to throw in the towel. They're counting on all of us giving up. We can't let that happen. That's why reaching our upcoming end-of-month fundraising goal is so important. After our next FEC deadline passes, we'll be required to report how many contributions we received and how many people chipped in. We need a strong report to show everyone that Democrats are not done fighting. We hope this message has shown you the urgency and importance of your contribution. So here comes our question for you, Emily: Will you chip in $3 today to help Democrats win back control of Congress and put a stop to Trump's authoritarian rule?

| Emily, Every day, we see the disastrous consequences of Trump's presidency. In the short time he's been in office, he's already started to rip away fundamental resources that people rely on — child care, health care, and food assistance — all just to make some of the richest people on Earth even richer. And now, instead of working to lower the cost of living, expanding access to affordable health care, or doing anything to help working families, Trump is directing his MAGA allies in red states to redraw their congressional districts. He's trying to avoid being held accountable by the voters by putting his thumb on the scales. These are the very real circumstances we are living under right now. But Emily, we are not powerless. Millions of us voted against Trump. There are millions of us who won't stand idly by and let Trump and his allies do whatever they want. We can — and will — fight back against Trump and his allies' harmful agenda. But to do that, we'll need a strong, organized Democratic Party leading the way. That's why I'm reaching out to you today, Emily. The DNC is the organization best positioned to move resources to the places they're needed most in 2025, 2026, and beyond, as we work to elect the Democrats who will be a check on Trump's power. If holding Trump accountable and electing Democrats at every level matters to you, I'm asking you to chip in $3 today to help:
If you've stored your info with ActBlue, we'll process your contribution instantly. Our democracy is meant to represent the best interests of all Americans, not just the wealthy few. And I'm committed to fighting back alongside the millions of people who don't see themselves represented in Trump's America. Thank you for joining me in this fight, Tim Walz

| Emily, Trump just said he would "lead a movement" to end mail-in voting ahead of the midterms. This is a code red emergency and an assault on our democracy. Trump is threatening an unprecedented attack on the voting rights of millions of Americans. Meanwhile, the DNC is already suing Trump for his last unlawful executive order attempting to suppress the rights of voters and investing big in organizing programs in every single state to make sure folks have all of the information they need to cast their votes this year and beyond. No matter your circumstances or location, every American deserves equal access to make their voices heard.
