The LWVNJ has created Fair Districts advocacy campaign for an impartial redistricting policy in New Jersey.
Currently, politicians draw district lines, designed to benefit those in office (gerrymandering).
The Fair Districts campaign is working with legislators on an amendment requiring that districts be redrawn by an impartial, independent citizens commission.
