Congrats to @BBforUT @lwvutah & the citizens of Utah in their work for fair district maps & fair representation.
State legislatures do NOT have an unlimited right to draw district lines to benefit themselves & their own political party. #MapsMatter https://t.co/61S8a3wfoX
In the meantime, billionaires with no interest in government of, by & for the people of PA will be trying hard to wipe out justices, legislators or governors who try to stand in their way.
#MapsMatter So does your vote.

🚨 Google Maps shows Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, ignoring international law. Tel Aviv is the recognized capital (UNSC Resolution 478, 1980).
📢 Report it now: https://t.co/moQGimoizz

#Gerrymandering isn't about red vs blue, it's about political leaders stealing voters' voices.
Chester County was a @PAGOP fortress until we saw how little we were heard & read REDMAP 2012 report. https://t.co/tag3zdM6kv

@FairDisPAChestr @BroadAndLiberty @LauraManion @ChescoChamber Strongest voices against transit funding, fair school funding, cyber charter reform, strong PA economy seem to be funded by J Yass.
@PASenateGOP @SenatorPittman @SenatorKimWard
Do you represent Yass or PA voters? Just asking.

Check FDPA Independence Day webpost then take another step. Write a letter to the editor about issues that matter to YOU, & the intersection between #redistricting, dysfunctional legislative process & lack of alignment in representation #MapsMatter #Budget

Seems to be a pattern in this:
#PAHouse promoted pro-consumer options.
#PASenate countered with efforts promoting corporate donor interests.
#MapsMatter
The more responsive the map, the more responsive the chamber to voters, not donors.
#EndGerrymandering.

New: A state law codifying consumer protections for low-income utility consumers is set to lapse come 2025 after lawmakers deadlocked on a reauthorization deal.

33 mappers from 19 states & 2 countries submitted 76 maps & offered valuable comments about proposed #redistricting criteria.
Watch for more about the FDPA 2024 Mapping Contest & a chance to offer comment on eligible maps.
Thank you mappers for your work on this!

#Gerrymandering litigation continues in multiple states, with 2 North Carolina cases now combined & scheduled for June 2025. #MapsMatter. So do #redistricting rules. Repeated litigation confuses voters & creates challenges for candidates & incumbents. https://t.co/FFrIzCkozT

Don't miss the part of this video w Stanley Chepaitis, 1 of our FDPA Indiana Co. leaders, who talks about farming, conservatism & the former hodgepodge of legislators sitting in their safe districts without the need to respond to constituents. #MapsMatter👍🏼https://t.co/zjQTJNcmWy

Fair maps matter. Episode 3 of 2021 #PCNTV series explains that #gerrymandering is about more than just which party wins. It impacts policy, budgets, priorities, power. It amplifies the voice of a few & shuts out the concerns of MOST Pennsylvanians.

Litigation & #redistricting continue even as states move toward 2024 primaries.
Both major parties struggle to maintain advantage with gerrymandered maps, but voters want a level playing field & we want our votes to count.

« Today, any individual who has even modest computing skills can create and use maps anywhere, for almost any purpose. [...] modern cartography requires taking an integrated, interdisciplinary approach to conceptualizing and producing maps. » #MapsMatter ⬇️

“Redistricting is primarily the duty & responsibility of the State,” Abbott v. Perez, 138 S. Ct. 2305, 2324 (2018) but state and federal courts have their "own duty to cure” districts drawn in violation of federal law.

It's time to end #Gerrymandering
#BREAKING: The federal court in Alabama has chosen a new congressional map.
Alabama voters will vote under Remedial Plan 3 for the 2024 election. https://t.co/kTirw0ESlW

#Redistricting litigation continues in multiple states. Wouldn't it make sense to insist on independent citizens commissions to end the conflict of interest allowing legislators to choose their voters?
No other major democracy allows this.

PA still has never had a woman governor or US Senator & still a long way from parity in legislative offices.
Better maps moved us closer, but closed party systems still allow gatekeepers in too many regions.
#MapsMatter #InternationalWomenDay
On #InternationalWomensDay RepresentWomen released a memo entitled "Voting Systems and Women's Representation." We found that countries with better gender parity had better voting systems. The message is clear: If we want more women elected in the U.S., we need systemic change.

China has 34,000 dead according to the WHO.
Beijing has 20 dead according to @JohnsHopkinsSPH

We've seen 3 decades of fake, gerrymandered majorities.
Leading with fake majorities is all about appeasing the fringe.
Leading with fair maps is different: if you don't deliver, voters can & will shift the majority.
#FixHarrisburg so all our voices are heard.
#MapsMatter

Disappointing to see @RepBryanCutler statement re "fake, gerrymandered majority."
We've had 30 years of gerrymandered majorities & decades of petty partisan power grabs.
Current House situation is result of a map that put voters first. Votes & maps matter
