It's easy to be a fan of democracy when things go our way. It’s when they don’t that our commitment gets tested.

At this moment in history — when core democratic principles seem to be continuously under attack, and too many people around the world have become cynical and disengaged — we need to ask ourselves not just what we believe, but what we're willing to do about it.

If we say we’re for equality and fair representation, are we ready to fight for it? Are we willing to risk something for it? Are we prepared to stand up for democratic principles even when it requires sacrifice?

My friends at the National Democratic Redistricting Committee (NDRC) are answering that call every day — pushing to redraw gerrymandered maps, defending voting rights, and working to ensure that every American has an equal say in our democracy.

Today, that work matters more than ever before. Will you join me in helping the NDRC fight for our democracy and continue the work of building a fairer America? [[link removed]]

For eight years, the NDRC has been doing the difficult and systematic work of undoing gerrymandered maps designed to silence voters. They’re fighting for fair representation in every state.

They've won important victories. But make no mistake — the opposition isn’t going away. Those who benefit from a system that lets lawmakers choose their voters instead of the other way around see their chance to take us back and strip power from ordinary Americans.

Look, the threats to our democracy aren't abstract or distant — they're unfolding right before our eyes.

Just recently, every House Republican present on the floor voted to pass the SAVE Act — legislation that, despite its name, would place significant obstacles in the path of millions of eligible Americans trying to register to vote. And in North Carolina, a candidate who lost at the ballot box tried to win in court by discarding thousands of legitimate votes.

This isn't politics as usual. This is a fundamental challenge to the principle that, here in America, everyone's vote counts the same.

Throughout our remarkable history, every generation has faced its own test. And time and again, ordinary citizens have answered the call — understanding that democracy isn't something we inherit. It's something we must build and rebuild, day by day.

That's what this moment demands of us. Not just for ourselves, but for the generations who will come after us. Will you join me in supporting the NDRC’s work by making a donation right now? [[link removed]]

Sincerely,

Barack Obama
