The Impact of Gerrymandering
CLC is on the front lines in the fight for fair redistricting practices in the states.
 Unfortunately, incumbents often rig the system to benefit themselves, their party and special interest supporters, manipulating voting maps to dictate the outcome of elections.  Two sources of discrimination in voting maps are partisan gerrymandering and electoral systems that under-represent people of color. The result is  dysfunction,  mistrust and  public policies  that  ignore  the will of the people.
