National Redistricting Foundation
Protecting our democracy.
Our mission is to dismantle unfair electoral maps and create a redistricting system based on democratic values in advance of the 2021 redistricting cycle. By helping to create more just and representative electoral districts across the country, we also hope to restore the public’s faith in a true representative democracy.
“If there’s a single idea that made our nation, it’s this one: The people are sovereign. … The people get to choose their representatives. And then they get to decide whether to keep them. Election Day is what links to the people to their representatives and gives the people their sovereign power. That day is the foundation of democratic governance. And partisan gerrymandering can make it meaningless.”
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan in Rucho v. Common Cause
Advocating for fairness in our electoral process.
The National Redistricting Foundation seeks to prevent and reverse invidious gerrymandering through legal action across the country. We seek to overturn unconstitutional district maps that entrench racial or partisan bias and to challenge actions that threaten to undermine the redistricting process.
