LACRA has 25 co-sponsors in the PA State Senate and 88 in the House. Senator David Argall introduced and supported #redistricting reform with League of Women Voters of Pennsylvania support, but hasn't scheduled a vote. It's time to contact him to find out why. #FairDistrictsPA legis.state.pa.us/cfdocs/legis/h…
Those amendments passed 53 to 47- hardly overwhelming. There's far more support for #redistricting reform. Will Senator David Argall follow the will of the people on that? He can choose to give SB 222 a vote & help end #Gerrymandering in PA The people demanded. So far he's ignored us.
The team at Dave's Redistricting does a great job helping advocates and activists fight #gerrymandering. The app is excellent, and free to use, and you can support them towards their $25k fundraising goal below. #FairDistrictsPA #FairMaps gofundme.com/f/power-the-fi…
