Join Us in Harrisburg April 16 to say "Redistricting reform is past due."

Come to the Capitol to let our legislators know we’re still working on redistricting reform and we're not planning to wait another decade for an independent citizens commission for both congressional and legislative redistricting. We want support for HB 22 and 23 and we want changes to procedural rules that allow just a few leaders to block important reforms.

We’ll hold a press conference and rally at noon, then distribute issue packets to representatives’ offices. You can also see the House or Senate in session. If you’ve never done it,, plan to take a half-hour guided tour of the Capitol (offered every half hour from 8:30 AM. to 4:00 PM). It’s an amazing building.

Let us know you’re coming so we can help you prepare and share schedule details closer to the date.  

Want to do a little more? Sign up for a two-hour shift with our Know Your Maps display. The display of maps will be in the rotunda, just steps away from the press conference and rally. Set-up will start at 9:30AM and we’ll be returning maps to Rep. Samuelson’s office at 3:30 PM. Find details and sign up for a two hour shift here.

Schedule for the day:

9:30AM   Set-up for Know Your Maps display (sign up here)

12:00 PM Press conference and rally in Main Rotunda
