@JudiciaryDems @maziehirono It's way past time. Everyone should be in the Constitution

With all that's been happening in Washington, it would be easy to miss this bit of news on the US's first climate assembly. https://t.co/cqWmjRRNfg

We have an excuse to draw attention once more to our friends Democracy Without Elections, and their board, chosen by random selection, thanks to this news story. https://t.co/YI0jDkioK4

@1a Robin Teater https://t.co/MyPvw52yZ0 Adam Cronkright https://t.co/2Ed4716411 Brett Hennig https://t.co/UUTvHwVJgc. To achieve truly representative government, consider using a lottery to select everyday people from all walks of life. Distribute power to fight the many "isms"

[Madeline McCarren @MMforEquality]

@joerogan liked your question about why have there been no radical improvements to our political system. What do you think about civic lotteries/sortition? Would be a great topic. And why ARE there "two sides of the aisle"? Why can't Dems and Repubs be intermingled? @SortitionNow

[Madeline McCarren @MMforEquality]

@1a @sunraysunray We need diversity of all types in power; this can be done through #civiclotteries / #sortition. We need to open up the democracy to other voices @SortitionNow

I volunteered in this small group. Everyone I met, in 10 small groups, had a positive experience. Even when there were difficult moments. We (&the experts) are closer in our views than the media & politicians tell us. I will be looking for a @BetterAngelsUSA group near me. @CNN

[NORC @NORCNews]

Along with conducting pre- and post event surveys, NORC recruited the representative cross-section of registered voters to participate in America in One Room. See what happened when 526 people from varying backgrounds took to Dallas to talk politics: https://t.co/bpsO9BpS8b @CNN

[Madeline McCarren @MMforEquality]

Will candidates listen to informed views of a cross-section of voters? Make deliberating minipublics part of their administration? https://t.co/nSmA3zZfHk @PeteButtigieg @ewarren @CoryBooker @KamalaHarris @SortitionNow @NIForums @BetterAngelsUSA @ByThePeopleUS @amyklobuchar

[Madeline McCarren @MMforEquality]

great article!

[Sortition Foundation @SortitionNow]

Good balanced article. We back Citizens' Assembly as proof efficacy of #sortition #deliberation. There are flaws with single issue CAs, as politicians relied upon as middlemen. Ultimately we aim to redefine democracy with citizen at core, CAs first step!

@lwvahbg Anyone want to carpool to the Women's Town Hall in Schaumburg tonight? Hosted by Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi, IL-8?

[Madeline McCarren @MMforEquality]

Under-representation underlies most of our ills. And much under-representation is a result of the election system. "Which candidate will push for inclusion of everyday people via methods described here: https://t.co/cN637AqGY3 "? @SortitionNow @_RealDemocracy @healthydem

[Kirsten Gillibrand @SenGillibrand]

Right now, the conversation about what women can do with our own bodies is being driven by too many male politicians. It should be led by the actual experts: women and doctors. So I'm going to hear from the people most directly affected by abortion bans like Georgia's.

[Madeline McCarren @MMforEquality]

if we were really a society with zero tolerance for any potential harm to innocents, we'd outlaw guns. And cars.

@CulturedModesty where and what positions their graduates have gotten. The institution's success in obtaining grants, in $s. I am dismayed at schools that just want students, regardless of job prospects in the field. And how little schools seem to care what happens to students after.

@lwvahbg The Community Closet cancelled this event this morning.

[Madeline McCarren @MMforEquality]

Great article. "Few proposals that go through a notice-and-comment period garner more than a handful of comments. DeVos’ plan has so far racked up 53,453." Is Trump admin going to set a new record for number of Comments? #HandsOffIX #MeToo @EnoughVoter @knowyourIX @TIMESUPNOW
