In a press release from July 14, 2022, our incredible partners at the League of Women Voters Virginia announced that they had received the LWVUS Powering Democracy Award “for its redistricting work as part of the 50+ state campaign to create People Powered Fair Maps.”
From meticulously blogging every step of the redistricting process, to training the public to fully participate in hearings and online mapping, the League has been a driving force in Virginia’s new redistricting process - many of their members even do double duty as OneVirginia2021 volunteers!
We are so grateful for their partnership and their wonderful work and could not be prouder of them for receiving this honor.
