Event Description

Christ United Methodist Church is hosting a two part public education seminar program on reforming Pennsylvania’s redistricting process. Fair Districts PA speaker Suzanne Broughton will explain PA’s current redistricting process, demonstrate how it undermines democracy, and then offer a solution to the problem. Suzanne will also discuss the legislation in Harrisburg and FDPA’s strategy going forward. Session 1 on January 5th will focus on the current process and on how it undermines democracy. Session 2 on January 12th will focus on how citizens can advocate for change.

Fair Districts PA is a non-partisan coalition of citizens and organizations seeking to reform PA redistricting rules by taking the process out of the hands of party leaders and putting that process into the hands of an impartial, transparent, and accountable independent citizens commission.
