John,

We have a critical update out of Virginia:

The anti-gerrymandering amendment is stalled in the House where it could
die. And if politicians don’t pass it by February 20th, we’ll have to wait
10 years to stop gerrymandering in Virginia.

[ [link removed] ]We can't let them get away with rigging our elections for another 10
years. Add your name now to urge lawmakers to pass the anti-gerrymandering
amendment.

Gerrymandering rigs elections by allowing politicians to draw their own
voting districts. It takes power away from voters and puts it into the
hands of self-serving politicians.

[ [link removed] ]We have just 13 days to pass the anti-gerrymandering amendment in the
Virginia State House. Will you add your name to urge VA delegates to pass
the amendment?

Your signatures make an impact. RepresentUs members from across the
country worked together just a few weeks ago to send more than 3,400
signatures to the VA State Senate, and shortly after, the
anti-gerrymandering amendment passed through committee with bipartisan
support.

Now, we need to do it again. Politicians think they can keep rigging
elections and nobody will notice it. If they see that people all over the
country are watching and expect them to end gerrymandering, they'll feel
pressure to do the right thing. [ [link removed] ]Add your name now to show them you're
watching.

If the amendment passes, it will go to the ballot where voters will make
the final decision about whether to outlaw gerrymandering under the state
Constitution.

The anti-corruption movement is powerful because we work together to unrig
the system, no matter where the fight is. Every state matters, and if we
win in Virginia, we will build momentum to stop gerrymandering in more
states across America.
