Independent redistricting commissions are one tool to ensure that the process of redrawing our voting maps respects and fairly represents communities, neighborhoods, and shared interests. State Assembly Bill 1248 would require truly independent redistricting commissions in larger jurisdictions in California, including San Francisco. Learn about AB 1248, California's fair redistricting bill in our new blog post! lwvsf.org/home/f/state-bill-wo

Did you know that 15 to 19 House districts could shift before 2024?

(The GOP currently has a 4-seat majority in the House.)

With conservative lawmakers hell-bent on tearing down our progress, we simply cannot afford to grow complacent. cnn.it/3wtvuEi

Gerrymandering is the antithesis of democracy.

This is good news however it may be short-lived due to an incoming Republican majority on North Carolina’s Supreme Court and future SCOTUS decisions.

All elections matter. State-level judicial races aren’t as glamorous as some, but they certainly do impact your life. And in case someone tries to tell you “both parties are the same” today or any other day, they aren’t.

Independent State Legislature Theory (ISLT) is wrong. It hands over the power of elections into a small set of hands without checks and balances. It does not serve the citizens of the United States of America.
