| DCCC Chair Suzan DelBene released the following statement on the new congressional map passed this morning by the Ohio Redistricting Commission:
“Across the country, Republicans are rigging maps in an attempt to save their doomed House Majority because they can’t defend their disastrous agenda of raising costs, slashing health care, and making life harder for working families.
“Ohioans are no stranger to Republicans in Columbus trying to cheat their way into power, and this isn’t the first or last time they will do so. While this is not a fair map for Ohio voters, I commend Ohio Legislative Democratic Leadership for negotiating to prevent an even more egregious gerrymander. With this map, we will defend and win with our battle-tested Democrats Marcy Kaptur, Emilia Sykes, and Greg Landsman, while expanding offensively to hold Republicans Mike Turner, Max Miller, and Mike Carey accountable.
“This compromise keeps us on the path to taking back the House Majority and we’ll continue to win across Ohio because voters know it’s House Democrats who are fighting for them.” |
