\r\n\r\nCommon Cause Minnesota, OneMN.org, Voices for Racial Justice, and individual Minnesota voters filed a lawsuit to protect representation for people of color in the redistricting process. As a result, Minnesota\u2019s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities had their interests represented, resulting the court drawing 9 majority BIPOC districts in the House Plans, and 5 in the Senate Plans, as well as 22 opportunity districts in the House, 10 in the Senate. Neither the Democrats nor Republicans advocated for these districts, despite the fact that 100% of Minnesota\u2019s population growth in the past decade is from BIPOC communities. The judicial panel released its final order on February 15th, 2022, adopting Minnesota\u2019s new U.S. House, State Senate, and State House maps.\r\n

Resumen del caso<\/strong><\/h4>\r\nCommon Cause Minnesota,\u00a0<\/span>along with OneMN.org, Voices for Racial Justice, and\u00a0seven individual Minnesota\u00a0voters<\/span>, are parties in a lawsuit to ensure that people of color are represented during the state\u2019s redistricting process. Our\u00a0intervention petition<\/a>\u00a0y\u00a0<\/span>memorandum of law in support of the motion to intervene<\/a>\u00a0demanded\u00a0that Minnesota\u2019s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities have their interests represented when new U.S. House and state legislative maps are drawn.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nSince\u00a01970,\u00a0<\/span>split partisan control of state government has resulted in a failure to approve\u00a0maps by the state constitutional deadline.\u00a0As a result,\u00a0a court appointed special redistricting panel has determined how Minnesota\u2019s districts are drawn. In anticipation of the courts\u00a0again\u00a0leading the redistricting process\u00a0this year,\u00a0several\u00a0preemptive lawsuits have\u00a0been filed to\u00a0give Minnesota citizens a say in how voting districts are drawn.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nWattson v. Simons and Sachs v. Simons<\/span><\/i>\u00a0were both filed and consolidated in 2021 to request that the court appoint their redistricting panel ahead of the legislature\u2019s likely failure to approve districts by the February 15, 2022 deadline and consider their plaintiff\u2019s proposed redistricting criteria and maps. On June 30, 2021, the Minnesota Supreme Court filed an order appointing its special redistricting panel. The appointed judges are Hon. Louise D. Bjorkman, the presiding judge; Hon Diane B. Bratvold; Hon. Jay D. Carlson; Hon. Juanita C. Freeman; and Hon Jodi L. Williamson.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nCommon Cause Minnesota and co-petitioners filed to intervene and join the lawsuit to ensure that BIPOC communities have a seat at the table when the special redistricting panel draws the state\u2019s maps. This intervention is necessary to give Minnesota\u2019s diverse population a voice in the once in a decade redistricting process. BIPOC communities represent the state\u2019s fastest growing population. In fact, approximately 85 percent of Minnesota\u2019s population growth between 2010 and 2019 can be attributed to communities of color, and as a result they will be disproportionately impacted by new voting districts. Without this intervention, thousands of Minnesotans are at risk of their voices being silenced and their concerns being ignored.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nRedistricting has a direct impact on the social, economic, and political status of Minnesota\u2019s BIPOC communities. Fair representation for these communities is essential. Without it, partisan interests will dominate the redistricting process, and community input will be ignored.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nCommon Cause and its co-plaintiffs, known in court as the Corrie Plaintiffs, filed a\u00a0statement of unresolved issues<\/a>\u00a0asking to prioritize communities of interest over strict population equality,\u00a0proposed redistricting principles<\/a>, and the maps below. See our\u00a0presentation to the court on our maps<\/a>, our\u00a0presentation responding to other parties\u2019 maps<\/a>, and our\u00a0short concluding rebuttal<\/a>.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<\/div>"}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_wysiwyg","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_wysiwyg":{"content":"Final Congressional Maps<\/a> Final Legislative Maps<\/a>\r\n\r\nRead Our Response to Final Maps<\/a> Press Release Announcing Lawsuit<\/a>"}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_add_component","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_add_component":null},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_take_action","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_take_action":{"heading":"Take Action","button_text":"","manually_curate":false,"action":null}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_banner","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_banner":{"use_donate_banner":true,"title":"Title [highlight]with highlighting[\/highlight] and additional text.","button":null,"image":null}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_related_articles","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_related_articles":{"heading":"Updates","button_text":"See all Related Articles","manually_curate":false,"articles":null}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_resources","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_resources":{"heading":"Related Resources","button_text":"See all Related Resources","manually_curate":false,"resource":null}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_press","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_press":{"heading":"Press","button_text":"","manually_curate":false,"press":null}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_events","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_events":{"heading":"Events"}},{"acf_fc_layout":"layout_our_experts","_acfe_flexible_toggle":"","component_our_experts":{"heading":"","manually_curate":false,"people":null}}]},"yoast_head":"\nCorrie v.
