Proposition 50: The Election Rigging Response Act

Donald Trump and Texas Republicans are making an unprecedented power grab to steal congressional seats and rig the 2026 election before voting even begins. Other Republican states are following suit. They want to steal enough seats to control Congress regardless of how the people vote.

If Californians don’t act now, Donald Trump will seize total power for two more years.

Proposition 50, also called the Election Rigging Response Act, will ensure that our votes still count and that Congress and the President don’t get to ignore the people without consequences.

By voting YES and working to pass Proposition 50, SEIU 2015 members can make sure that our national politicians listen and are accountable to working people. Proposition 50…

• Protects Democracy: Prop 50 makes sure the 2026 mid-term elections are conducted on a level playing field without an unfair advantage for Republicans.
• Commits to Fair Redistricting: Prop 50 reaffirms California’s commitment to independent redistricting and calls on all states to commit to fair and impartial maps.
• Gives Voters the Power: Prop 50 puts the power in the hands of the People of California to approve emergency congressional district maps.
• Is Fair and Proportional: Prop 50 provides emergency maps ONLY because Republicans moved forward with their power grab.
• Is Temporary: These maps expire in 2030. Prop 50 preserves California’s award-winning redistricting reforms and reaffirms the California Redistricting Commission’s authority to draw congressional districts after the next census.
