Support redistricting processes and enforceable standards that promote fair and effective representation at all levels of government with maximum opportunity for public participation.
Long-awaited Redistricting has begun and the districts created this year will be in place for ten years. LWVCT is urging our members to speak out to stress the importance of Fair Maps. Attend one of the two upcoming public hearings!
Americans pride ourselves on being able to vote for the people who make the laws that affect our everyday life. We value our ability to choose a candidate who represents our values – someone who will stand up for what we think is important.
Since taking a leadership role in shaping critical legislative actions in 2012, the LWVFL has continued to protect voting rights, and now plans to be very involved with the redistricting process over the coming months.
The August Redistricting Community College curriculum will cover Introduction, Community Mapping, Rules and Timelines, Providing Testimony and Improving Transparency.

The League encourages all of our local League leaders to bring League redistricting priorities and talking points into focus with hearing testimony that integrates them with a discussion of local communities of interest, conditions, and concerns. We hope our members will do so as constituents and individuals.
