1/ #SCOTUS abdicated in the gerrymandering cases today, but keep in mind that voters can still solve the problem. In 2018 voters in 5 states adopted redistricting reforms by overwhelming majorities, & there are now active measures in 6 more. https://www.brennancenter.org/analysis/citizen-and-legislative-efforts-reform-redistricting-in-2019 … @brennancenter
2/ Earlier this year, the U.S. House passed #HR1, a historic package of democracy reforms that would expand voting access, end gerrymandering, and curb the grip of big money on our politics. #ForThePeople https://www.brennancenter.org/issues/democracy-reform ….
3/ If adopted, #HR1 would transform redistricting, ending gerrymandering and making the process fairer and more transparent. #ForthePeople #fairmapshttps://www.brennancenter.org/blog/five-ways-hr-1-would-transform-redistricting …
4/ #HR1 would do a lot of other essential things to fix our democracy too, as I testified earlier this year. #Forthepeoplehttps://www.brennancenter.org/analysis/testimony-house-committee-administration-support-people-act …
Fair districts mean nothing when the opposition endorses unfair ones.
Yeah until two years from now when Republicans start suing independent redistricting commissions, and Republican judges rule that they are unconstitutional, and put mapmaking back in the hands of state legislators elected from gerrymandered districts.
If I understand the jurisprudence and legal texts though, the Court has said legislators are in charge, which means they get to delegate redistricting to whomever they will. Today's decision reinforces that -- namely, that the courts have no role.
HR1. Should be passed the first day it can be.
Was passed on the first day of the session.
Didn’t do much good since GOP majorities in state legislators just shut them down.
#MoscowMitch will never allow it.
