John,

A political earthquake just hit Texas — and it is one of the biggest breaks pro-democracy forces have had in years.

A federal court just struck down Texas Republicans’ extreme, Trump-backed gerrymander for 2026 — blocking one of the most shameless attempts to rig congressional maps in modern American history.

Trump and Texas Republicans designed this map to hand the GOP 30 of the state’s 38 House seats. They were counting on Texas to lock in their razor-thin majority and protect Trump’s power heading into 2026.

Now? The entire plan just collapsed.

This ruling doesn’t just stop an illegal, racially gerrymandered map — it blows a hole straight through the GOP’s 2026 strategy. Their candidates are suddenly scrambling. Their path to holding the House is shrinking by the hour. Their “permanent majority” fantasy just went up in flames.

And for us — for the people who believe in democracy, fair maps, and real representation — this is the opening we have been fighting for.

Now we need to move fast.

We need to organize.
We need to mobilize.
We need to turn Republican chaos into a game-changing Democratic victory in 2026.

Building Blue is already preparing rapid-response voter outreach in Texas and across the battleground states that will decide House control — but we need resources immediately to scale it.

If there was ever a moment to act, it’s right now. Republicans overplayed their hand. The courts caught them. And now we have a real chance to flip seats they thought were untouchable.

Will you chip in today and help us seize this historic opportunity before it slips away?

This is one of the biggest pro-democracy victories of the year — and what we do in the next few days could determine the entire trajectory of the 2026 midterms. Let’s make the most of it.
