Mapping Pennsylvania’s Future: Ready for 2025
About 150 Pennsylvanians gathered in Camp Hill on December 7, 2024 for Mapping Pennsylvania’s Future: Next Steps in Redistricting Reform.
When legislative leaders manipulate district boundaries to keep themselves in office or to silence their opposition, we ALL lose.
Fair Districts PA formed in 2016 to advocate for a better redistricting process and to inform voters about the harms of gerrymandered districts. We want an independent redistricting process and accountable legislature that represents all Pennsylvanians well.
For decades this abuse of our political system put Pennsylvania on the list of most gerrymandered states in the nation. While current maps are better as a result of citizen advocacy and attention, there’s nothing in law to prevent future extreme gerrymandering.
We need to amend the PA constitution to create a better process. Under PA’s current redistricting processes, legislative leaders are choosing their voters. FDPA is advocating for an independent redistricting commission with a transparent, public process and clear, prioritized mapping standards
