Right now, state legislatures across the country are setting new boundaries for state legislative and congressional districts. And in many states, Republicans are drawing maps that allow them to hold onto power.
In Texas, for example, Republicans recently passed a law making voting harder, especially for people of color. Now they’re advancing a new congressional map that’s tilted in their favor and doesn’t reflect the state’s growth.

@BarackObama Why isn’t there a “one person, one vote” and every vote counts system in the self-pronounced “country of the free?????
@MoerkerkG @BarackObama Because the Conservative party has always insisted on state’s rights which leads to the exclusion of people in states with the largest populations. The states with small populations are afraid they would have little say if more power was given to states with more power/votes.
