Redistricting Reform PA retweeted
Those amendments passed 53 to 47- hardly overwhelming.
There's far more support for #redistricting reform.
Will @SenatorArgall follow the will of the people on that? He can choose to give SB 222 a vote & help end #Gerrymandering in PA
The people demanded. So far he's ignored us.
The team at @davesredist does a great job helping advocates and activists fight #gerrymandering. The app is excellent, and free to use, and you can support them towards their $25k fundraising goal below.

The #ForThePeopleAct would require an independent #redistricting commission in every state.
It would also end prison #gerrymandering across the country.

From @katieemeyer4: Pandemic-induced delays in the release of census data have stalled PA's #redistricting process. Some lawmakers, including @Senatorcosta, are optimistic that both parties will compromise on drawing new district maps. #FairDistrictsPa
