Pamela,
It’s time for a full-court press. Georgia lawmakers just started a special legislative session — and rigging the voting maps to gut Black and brown political power was on their agenda. We’re organizing voters to speak out against this power grab. And we’re calling on major Georgia-based corporations — including Coca-Cola, UPS, Delta Airlines, Georgia Pacific, and Home Depot — to use their significant sway in state politics for good and make their voices heard as well. Add your name if you want to send a message to these Georgia corporations — and tell them to oppose racist voting maps that silence Black and brown voters. We need to collect as many signatures as possible in the next few days so we can show company leaders where the public stands. 
Consumer voices go a long way to shape corporate decisions — and when corporate leaders talk, politicians listen. Just days ago, the Georgia legislature met in a special session. Gov. Kemp continues to push to redraw Georgia's voting maps for the 2028 elections — even after Georgia House and Senate Republican leaders announced they will not proceed, fearing a fight over racist maps just before the election could cost them their majority. So we still have an opportunity to make a difference in this fight. Let’s show Georgia lawmakers that there would be a real political cost to rigging the maps — including pushback from major corporations. If you agree that powerful companies should speak out against racial discrimination and silencing Georgians, tell these Georgia corporations to say no to racist voting maps. In solidarity, The Fair Fight Action Team
