California Redistricting Commission Needs More Women, Diversity

URGENT ALERT! California’s election districts may be drawn by a group

that is 73% white and 69% male! How will the interests of California’s

diverse population be fairly represented?

This possibility could become fact, unless we encourage a diverse

group of people to apply for the Citizens Redistricting Commission

before the February 16th deadline. Click here or visit

Every ten years, the state’s electoral districts are redrawn following

the census. Drawing these district boundaries determines the make-up

of the legislature and influences every policy issue our state faces.

For the first time ever, this will be done by a group of citizens just

like you.

We need you to help ensure that this Redistricting Commission is

sensitive to the nuances of California’s diverse communities. We need

you to stand-up for women, children, elderly, disabled, veterans,

people of color, and the LGBT community. We need you to help steer

California’s legislative and policy agenda by taking part in the

redistricting process. We need you and your like-minded friends and

family members to apply to become a Citizens Redistricting

Commissioner!

The deadline to apply for the Citizens Redistricting Commission is

Tuesday, February 16th. Even if you are unable to serve on the

Citizens Redistricting Commission, you can help by forwarding this

email to your like-minded friends and family members and asking them

to apply.

Help steer California’s legislative and policy agenda by ensuring we

draw districts that represent California’s interests, not the

interests of a select few.
