Common Cause’s new poll makes it clear – Americans know our redistricting system is broken and are demanding bold reform: [1]

• Over 2 out of every 3 American voters say it’s bad for the country when one party controls how voting maps are drawn.

• More than 3 out of every 4 voters want independent citizen commissions – NOT self-serving politicians – to draw our voting maps.

• And 2 out of every 3 voters – including a majority of Republicans and Independents – want Congress to take redistricting OUT of politicians’ hands nationwide by passing laws to ban gerrymandering and mid-decade redistricting.

Voters across the spectrum agree: gerrymandering has to end. [2] But Congress keeps turning its back on the people – stalling on reforms, enabling Trump’s mid-decade redistricting scheme, and letting state politicians run wild and rig maps to entrench their power.

This is a crisis for our democracy, but also an opportunity.

We need to make it clear to the White House and Republicans in Congress that an overwhelming majority of Americans – including their own voters – are demanding fair maps now. Add your name to the petition today.
