Once again, Republicans are unwilling to abide by the decision made by voters. This is a pattern of behavior. You can’t work with them.

Michigan Republicans lost the popular vote yet won the state House majority in 3 of the last 4 elections, largely thanks to gerrymandering. Now they’re suing to block the new independent redistricting commission voters passed in 2018 https://t.co/HgjLOxo1Ki

BE AWARE MICHIGAN-you voted for an independent commission to draw legislative lines. Republicans lost/now want to reverse that vote. They are afraid of the people they claim they want to represent. Any politician who supports this lawsuit must be defeated. https://t.co/DEpjEX5DQu

Over 61% of Michiganders voted to take redistricting out of the hands of those with the most partisan interests to gain, to keep the process as neutral as possible. The party that gerrymandered the current maps is trying to have it struck down. #FairMapshttps://t.co/KruSaFOIjP
