Vote Yes on this bill if you want congressional districts to be drawn by independent commissions instead of state lawmakers, with open meetings, public transparency, and rules meant to reduce maps that favor one party or protect incumbents.

Organizations that support this bill may include voting rights groups, election reform advocates, and good-government organizations that want independent map drawing, more public input, and less partisan gerrymandering.

Vote No on this bill if you want states and their elected legislatures to keep primary control over congressional redistricting, and if you are concerned that a federal mandate would limit state authority and shift too much power to commissions and courts.

Organizations that oppose this bill may include state legislative groups, party organizations, and groups that prefer states or elected lawmakers to keep control over drawing congressional districts.
