[All On The Line] {NAME} -- On January 6, a violent mob stormed the Capitol with a deeply anti-democratic goal: to overturn an election in which the will of the people had clearly been expressed. Yesterday, we saw their actions repudiated as President Biden walked through the doors they breached to take the oath of office. This attempted coup did not happen in a vacuum. There has been an anti-democratic current flowing through our politics for quite some time. It has washed away many of the moderate voices in our government and replaced them with a cacophony of yes-men and women who readily amplify false and hateful rhetoric in order to advance their own political ambitions. These sycophants have gained power through a methodical blend of voter suppression, misinformation, and the manipulation of electoral districts. Their playbook is cynical and dangerous. It causes rot at the very core of our democratic system by undermining confidence in the idea that our government is responsive and accountable to the people. That's where we come in, {NAME}. It is our sacred mission to restore this trust -- and prove to the American people once again that we can build institutions that are rooted in fairness. That is what our work to end gerrymandering is all about -- it is part of this larger project of rebuilding representative democracy. Let me illustrate how this point played out earlier this month when Republican members of the U.S. House of Representatives voted to invalidate the ballots of over 10 million Americans. Half of the 139 objectors to the certification of electoral votes came from states with gerrymandered maps. So when many of them go home to their districts and use the myth of voter fraud to justify their vote, they will only be appealing to the base that they need to win a primary election. They don't expect to be held accountable for their votes because partisan politicians like them have strategically selected their district's voters so they can dodge accountability. So, it is time to end this, {NAME}. We are doing the hard work at All On The Line to recruit, train, and empower a coalition that can overcome the struggle ahead of us to renew our faith in democracy and restore a system of accountability at the ballot box.
