| Following the release of Texas Republicans’ proposed, clearly gerrymandered congressional map, DCCC Executive Director Julie Merz issued the following statement:
“From the beginning of this broken process, Texas Republicans’ only objective has been to follow orders from DC party bosses desperate to try and save House Republicans’ teetering majority.
“We’re still evaluating the proposed map. At first look, Texas Republicans appear to have made what is already one of the country’s most racially discriminatory maps even worse. Should this map become law, we anticipate Texas will get sued and the map will get struck down. Regardless, DCCC is ready to recruit aggressively to unseat every single newly vulnerable Republican who went along with this corrupt scheme.” |
