CLC defends fair maps in court and champions fair redistricting practices like citizen-led independent redistricting commissions and an end to partisan gerrymandering because voters should be the ones to choose their politicians, not the other way around. CLC also fights maps that dilute Black and brown voting power and advocates for strong legal protections for Black, Asian, Native and Latino or Hispanic voters so every vote counts equally, and every voice is heard.

Recent redistricting cases and actions
Campaign Legal Center, alongside other pro-democracy groups FairVote, Protect Democracy, and RepresentUs, filed a friend-of-the-court brief with the U.S. Supreme Court in Rose v. Raffensperger, a challenge to Georgia’s at-large system of election for the state’s Public Service Commission under the Voting Rights Act.
State Voting Rights Acts (state VRAs), which allow states to go above and beyond the floor set by the federal Voting Rights Act (VRA) to protect and serve their voters, are an innovative solution to protect the freedom to vote in state and local elections.
CLC joined a brief urging the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold the right of Black voters in South Carolina to be free from racial gerrymandering.
