In 2022, the PA General Assembly passed five constitutional amendments as part of one bill, Senate Bill 106, with late night votes weeks after the normal start of summer recess.

We are not lawyers, parliamentarians or procedural experts, but we HAVE spent the last few years deep in research on rules in use in other states and have also logged hundreds of hours of conversation with Pennsylvania legislators in both parties and both chambers.
On the first day of the 2023-2024 legislative session, supporters came to Harrisburg to ask for better procedural rules.

About 130 Pennsylvanians gathered at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Harrisburg to celebrate accomplishments of the past few years and prepare for the challenges ahead. FDPA Chair Carol Kuniholm opened the meeting, acknowledging the dedicated work of volunteers across the state that contributed to better legislative maps drawn for the next decade.
With the election this past week, it’s clear to us that the last seven years of work by Fair Districts PA and our partners has resulted in districts more representative to the state as a whole.
