The once-a-decade redistricting process is underway in Washington State. Every 10 years, after the federal census, we redraw the boundaries of our congressional and legislative electoral districts to ensure that each district represents an equal number of residents. To ensure that our congressional and legislative district maps take into account as many local ideas as possible, the Washington State Redistricting Commission needs to hear from you.
A public meeting for Congressional Districts 8 and 10, will be held online July 31, 1:00 - 3:00. Register NOW to participate.
Testify about Legislative and Congressional District maps when you are asked to turn on your sound and video. Detailed instructions for testifying in virtual public meetings are provided and the League of Women Voters has developed online video training explaining the redistricting process, writing effective testimony, and testifying. Free interpreter and translation services are available.
