Please do click here to read the whole article, which concludes with the calls for reform coming from inside the House (heh). The graphics are excellent and easy to understand. And then tell your friends and neighbors about it, and share the link to your own social media pages. Use it to start a conversation.

Also, get hold of a copy of Jesse Wegman’s book and, you know, read it. Buy link beneath the image.

I could get behind that. What we have now isn’t working, especially in highly gerrymandered states. The reps are more worried about being primaried than they are about winning the actual election, which is how we got such a radical right slim majority that runs the House. I think most Dems would be behind this, but most Repubs wouldn’t because they will do anything that keeps them in power.
I think a majority of actual Republicans would be behind this. I’m pretty sure I can speak for both my parents in saying that I know they would have been.
