🚨BREAKING🚨
Louisiana voters supported by NRAF have filed a lawsuit challenging the state's malapportioned congressional map after a legislative deadlock.
In other words, the LA Legislature has failed to pass a fair congressional map—and LA voters are making sure that’s done.
Louisiana voters supported by NRAF have filed a lawsuit challenging the state's malapportioned congressional map after a legislative deadlock.
In other words, the LA Legislature has failed to pass a fair congressional map—and LA voters are making sure that’s done.
#2020Census showed that Louisiana's congressional districts are no longer balanced to meet the federal “one-person, one-vote” requirement which requires congressional districts to have substantially equal populations.
So, Louisiana voters are asking a state court to establish a process to ensure that a new congressional map is in place ahead of the 2022 elections this fall that reflects the state’s population changes and creates fair districts composed of a roughly equal number of people.
Make no mistake: the LA Legislature could have drawn new congressional districts that corrected the population imbalance & accurately represented Louisianans—but it failed to do so.
Needless to say, we are proud to be supporting LA voters in this fight for equal representation.
