Here in Arizona, the people help draw the maps -- not state legislatures. And while it may sound like a simple path to fair maps, our team is actually devoting a lot of resources toward educating Arizonans about redistricting -- not to mention defending the independent commission from partisan attacks.
With 2021 mere months away, we'll need to continue our educational seminars, trainings, and outreach. Can I count on you to support our work in states like mine with a $9 monthly donation to our Commissioner Education Fund? That's just $1 per congressional district in Arizona, but it will support educating activists looking to join independent redistricting commissions in several of our target states.
I've been hosting a slate of virtual information sessions this summer to explain how the redistricting process works in Arizona and how people can apply to serve on the state's independent redistricting commission.
Ordinary folks must have a seat at the table when it comes time to redraw the state maps, but those people should actually reflect their communities. With our virtual trainings, we're able to connect with people from all over the state and of all different backgrounds.
We know how important it is to protect independent commissions and ensure that the next round of Arizona maps truly includes everyone and reflects the diversity of our state. I'm so frustrated to see continued attacks on our commission, and I know other states are facing similar challenges. It's why I'm asking for your support.
Lend me a hand! Support All On The Line's work with a $9 monthly donation to our Commissioner Education Fund. Your commitment will be essential in states with independent commissions like Arizona, Colorado, and Wisconsin.
Thanks for supporting our work,
