Hi John,

Yesterday, RepresentUs members across America held the largest nationwide phonebank in the last year to demand an end to gerrymandering in Virginia.

We joined up with the OneVirginia2021 campaign, met with politicians at the state Capitol, delivered thousands of petition signatures to legislators, and made over 2,200 calls to voters. And we’re keeping up the pressure with more phonebanks this week – join one here any time.

Read on to hear more about the inspiring campaign and day of action:

RepresentUs volunteers went to the State Capitol and met with lawmakers to demand they pass the anti-gerrymandering amendment this session. Some of our volunteers traveled over 3 hours to attend the event, and others came from nearby states to support the effort.

More than 3,400 RepresentUs members signed on in support: Once there, volunteers hand-delivered signatures from RepresentUs members in all 50 states. 

We flooded the phone lines: While volunteers walked through the halls of the Capitol, phones were ringing off the hook with calls from the national phonebank - our most successful ever! RepresentUs members made more than 2,200 calls, connecting Virginia voters to politicians to demand an end to gerrymandering.

What's next: We’re not done yet. RepresentUs members will continue calling voters to keep the pressure on and make sure politicians know that passing the anti-gerrymandering amendment is a priority for voters. You can join the phonebank anytime this week.

The anti-corruption movement is powerful because we work together to unrig the system, no matter where the fight is. We understand that every state matters – and yesterday, we showed Virginia politicians the power of this movement. If we win in Virginia, we will build momentum to stop gerrymandering in more states across America.

We’ll continue to track the progress of the anti-gerrymandering amendment as the legislative session moves forward, and we’ll keep you updated on major developments.

Thanks for being part of this movement,

Jen Johnson Movement Director RepresentUs
