There was an interesting new post on the subject of redistricting written by the Campaign Legal Center’s Christopher Lamar, who “promotes redistricting and electoral reform through advocacy and litigation”. It was published on the Campaign Legal Center’s website. Take a look at this excerpt:

Congress also has the chance to pass the For the People Act, which includes requiring IRCs for Congressional elections.

These and other redistricting reforms in states like Alaska are aimed at giving politicians the space needed to represent a larger swath of their constituencies. They may already be having an effect. Two of the seven Michigan Republican Congressmembers voted to impeach Trump.

Politicians have a choice: they can support reforms that lead to a more perfect union or continue to focus on a small subset of voters.
