People should choose their politicians, not the other way around.

Friend,

 

Something huge just happened in Virginia.


Late Friday afternoon, members of the Virginia House of Delegates advanced a
constitutional amendment to establish a bipartisan redistricting commission in
the commonwealth. 


This is big. Now, the people of Virginia will have the chance to decide
whether to adopt the amendment into their constitution in November. 
SUPPORT THE EFFORT TO END GERRYMANDERING AROUND THE COUNTRY

Getting this amendment through the legislature was no small feat. It required
a concerted effort from supporters and activists from around the state,
tireless efforts from local good-governance groups, and the bipartisan support
of 92 members of the Virginia General Assembly who voted in favor this year. 

These legislators ensured that politicians aren’t drawing the maps to choose
their own voters. 

A special shout out to the Commonwealth Caucus

and its co-chairs Delegate Suhas Subramanyam (D) and Senator Emmett Hanger (R),
two of our Unity Candidates from Virginia

voted to support SJ-18!

There’s still a lot to do: Virginians will vote in November on the amendment,
and we have to convince them to vote yes! Learn more about how you can get
involved in the effort by visiting our partners atOneVirginia2021

This is a huge first step in ending gerrymandering to put voters first!

Best, 

Brett Maney
