Event Description

The Johnstown chapter of AAUW is hosting a virtual public education program on the importance of Fixing Harrisburg and Reforming the Rules in the PA state legislature. FDPA speaker Karen Calhoun will explain how current unfair rules allow committee chairs to block an array of broadly supported bipartisan solutions (including Redistricting Reform) from getting a vote. She will address the need to reform the rules in Harrisburg and she will discuss ways that organizations and individuals can advocate for change.

Fair Districts PA is a non-partisan coalition of citizens and organizations seeking to reform PA redistricting rules by ensuring that the process is impartial, transparent, and accountable.
