If lawmakers’ goal is to create a map that ensures representation for communities of color and driven by community input, then why not show the work?

Lawmakers should showcase their redistricting work so all Illinoisans, especially people of color, can see whether the maps are in their best interest.

Let’s start with more notice for public hearings, transparency for map proposals, prioritizing the Federal Voting Rights Act and Illinois Voting Rights Act, and ensuring the public can weigh in and hear back from lawmakers about the final maps before votes are cast.

A compliance report is necessary to show how map-makers used public input and met voting rights acts requirements.

These changes can ensure that constituents in communities across Illinois understand the process.
