After weeks of advocacy from Hoosiers opposed to gerrymandering, State Senator Fady Qaddoura will introduce legislation to ban mid-decade redistricting in Indiana during the upcoming legislative session. 

More than 20,000 Hoosiers have contacted their lawmakers to say they do not want mid-decade redistricting and do not support the pressure coming from Washington, DC. Indiana lawmakers will now have an opportunity to respond to voters’ concerns and pass a ban on the effort to allow politicians to redistrict anytime it serves their political purposes.   

Redistricting leaders will hold a press conference on the bill and opposition to mid-decade redistricting at the Indiana Statehouse on Wednesday, November 19, at 10 a.m. Sen. Qaddoura, Common Cause Indiana, League of Women Voters of Indiana, Women 4 Change and other members of the ALL IN for Democracy coalition will attend. 

WHAT: Press Conference to Support a Bill Banning Mid-Decade Redistricting
WHEN: Wednesday, November 19 at 10 a.m.  
WHERE: Indiana Statehouse, 3rd floor of the State House, North Atrium
WHO: State Senator Fady Qaddoura, Common Cause Indiana, Women 4 Change, League of Women Voters of Indiana and other members of the ALL IN for Democracy coalition
