The redistricting reform measure was passed by the previous Legislature in 2019, and passed by the Senate last month, with strong bipartisan support.\u00a0It was reported favorably by the House Committee earlier this week, but has not yet received a floor vote. If the House of Delegates does not pass the measure before adjourning this week, the proposed amendment will not go to voters.","featured_image":"","press_type":236,"authors":["{\"site_id\":\"1\",\"post_type\":\"person\",\"post_id\":7850}"],"related_issues":[103,2066],"related_work":false,"location":46},"sidebar":{"helper_enable_sidebar":false,"helper_media_contact":{"heading":"Media Contact","manually_enter_person":false,"person":null,"name":"","role":"","phone":"","email":""},"helper_links_downloads":{"heading":"Links & Downloads","links":null}},"page_layout":[{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_wysiwyg","_acfe_flexible_toggle":null,"component_wysiwyg":{"content":"La Legislatura de Virginia est\u00e1 a un paso de enviar una propuesta de enmienda constitucional a los votantes en noviembre. <a href=\"http:\/\/lis.virginia.gov\/cgi-bin\/legp604.exe?201+cab+SC10108SJ0018+SBREF\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">medida de reforma de redistribuci\u00f3n de distritos<\/a> fue aprobada por la Legislatura anterior en 2019, y <a href=\"http:\/\/lis.virginia.gov\/cgi-bin\/legp604.exe?201+vot+SV0622SJ0018+SJ0018\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aprobada por el Senado el mes pasado, con un fuerte apoyo bipartidista.<\/a>El Comit\u00e9 de la C\u00e1mara de Representantes lo aprob\u00f3 a principios de esta semana, pero a\u00fan no ha recibido una votaci\u00f3n en el pleno.

We are at an historic moment \u2013 the House of Delegates can continue to seek partisan advantage in the redistricting process, or they can allow Virginians to vote in November to reform the process, give everyday Virginians a seat at the redistricting table, and provide meaningful opportunities for public input.\r\n\r\nAdopting the substitute will set redistricting reform back by years. \u00a0Constitutional amendments must be passed in two legislative sessions separated by an election and then sent to the voters for a referendum. \u00a0If the substitute were to be adopted, Virginia voters would be required to vote in gerrymandered districts for at least the next decade. Legislators drawing their own districts is an inherent conflict of interest \u2013 like foxes guarding a henhouse. Virginians deserve better.\r\n\r\nThere is no such thing as a perfect reform, but SJ18 as passed last session and by the Senate last month is a huge step toward transparent and inclusive democracy as it should be in Virginia. We urge the House of Delegates to give Virginia voters a chance to vote on the reform by rejecting the substitute and passing the original SJ 18.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;"}}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
