We urgently need your action. A dangerous redistricting bill, which would allow the State Legislature to hold all the power in deciding how our voting maps are drawn, is making its way to the Senate floor. This blatant power-grab could permanently change the process for drawing our state maps and would be detrimental to communities.
To build a healthy democracy where we can protect our health and the health of our planet, we need to end Republican control of redistricting. That’s why we’ve long-advocated for an independent, nonpartisan process that moves redistricting outside the hands of our gerrymandered legislature – and the public agrees.
But in the face of this widespread support for independent, nonpartisan redistricting, legislators are pushing Senate Bill 488 (SB 488) and Assembly Bill 415 (AB 415), an anti-democratic piece of legislation that would entrench legislative control over the redistricting process.
