Issues
Redistricting
In our elections, every voice should be heard, and every vote should count equally. Elections should be determined by voters, but when politicians rig our voting maps, they can pick their own voters instead of voters picking their politicians.
CLC fights for fair voting maps and systems that give every voter an equal opportunity to participate in the political process.
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.
