Rep. Draper Calls on Georgians to Oppose Special Session for Redistricting
Rep. Draper urges Georgians to write to Governor Kent at NoDirtyMapsForGa.com to oppose any special session to redraw maps before the midterms after a Supreme Court ruling weakened Voting Rights Act protections.
Rep. Saira Draper is urging Georgians to speak out against any effort to redraw the state's congressional maps ahead of the midterm elections. Following a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision that severely weakened the Voting Rights Act, Georgia is now at greater risk of political map manipulation by Republican leaders.
A special legislative session to redraw maps would open the door to more partisan redistricting at a time when voters deserve stability, transparency, and fair representation.
Georgians can take immediate action by visiting NoDirtyMapsForGa.com to send a letter to Governor Kemp. The message is simple: say no to a special session and do not redraw Georgia's maps before the midterm elections.
