Date: Tuesday, August 18, 2020
Time: 6pm - 7:30pm
Place: Virtual -- join by phone/computer
This November, after years of activism, redistricting reform is finally in the hands of Virginia's voters. This reform could give citizens a seat at the table and clear out the smoky backroom.
Join us for a discussion and Q&A on this amendment and the state of the redistricting reform movement in general, with special guest Brian Cannon, executive director of FairMapsVA (formerly of OneVirginia2021).
We'll review:
A timeline of events, including what happens if the amendment passes (or fails) in November
An overview of the arguments for (and against) the amendment
What redistricting could mean for a gerrymandered Lynchburg
Simple actions you can take to raise awareness in our community
