Florida Republicans have passed Ron DeSantis’s gerrymandered congressional map, which could eliminate four of our Democratic congressional seats. This map is unconstitutional. It is a direct violation of Fair Districts—the amendment Floridians passed by a 63% majority to stop exactly this kind of partisan map manipulation.
This isn’t over. The legal fight starts NOW. And come November, voters are going to make every Republican who voted for this illegal power grab answer for their decision. That’s a promise.
DeSantis drew this map to silence your vote. To make Florida’s congressional delegation look nothing like Florida. To protect Republican incumbents from ever facing real accountability for their failed leadership.
Saturday, May 2nd, 2:00-4:00 Lehigh Acres Regional Library, 800 Gunnery Road N.
