I'll get straight to the point. We must pass Amendment 1 (the Redistricting Commission Amendment) to the Virginia Constitution this year.
What's the Redistricting Commission Amendment? A "YES" vote supports transferring the power to draw legislative districts in the General Assembly and Congress from the partisan state legislature to a bipartisan redistricting commission composed of an equal number of state legislators and citizens.
Voting "YES" means that our legislative districts will be drawn fairly—without smoke-filled back rooms, political maneuvers, and partisan gerrymanders.
