2021 is the year for redistricting in the United States. The League’s People Powered Fair Maps campaign is working in states to ensure that the new districts are drawn to be as fair and representative of the people as possible. In Connecticut, that means we must draw attention to redistricting so that public awareness encourages a fair process and outcome.

The process called “redistricting” will determine how our local school board, city council, state legislative, and congressional districts are drawn. How can our communities participate? How can we ensure that our interests are being heard and represented by our elected officials? How can we ensure that the voting strength of our communities is not weakened? What are the important factors to consider in redistricting?
