As partisan redistricting and the elimination of voting protections dominate the news, the LWVWA and the Washington Redistricting Commission Reform Task Force continue their move toward a better plan. 

Tune in May 26 for the latest LWVWA Democracy Power-Up and learn about the solution proposed by democracy advocates detailed in “Building a People First Commission,” a new report analyzing the results of an important survey conducted last fall. 

Based on five years of study and analysis, the People First Commission would strengthen transparency, accountability, access and citizen engagement. California, Michigan and Colorado already have such commissions. 

This is an opportunity to stand up against partisan gerrymandering to build toward true reform. 

The one-hour power-up will be offered twice on Zoom. Register for the noon presentation or the 6:30 p.m. presentation.
