Speaker is a FDPA expert for the Philadelphia area. Title to be announced.
Fair Districts for Pennsylvania is a statewide advocacy organization: non-profit committed to reducing gerrymandering and other unconstitutional/unethical redistricting of Congressional, Assembly, and State Senate districts. During 2017/8, FDPA worked with a pair of State Senators on bills to create a non-partisan redistricting commission, which would utilize the post-2020 Census data to develop the three sets of districts. [In PA, the State Supreme Court intervened in 2017/8 to create interim Congressional districts — praised by most liberals. These may be under attack in 2020 by ultra-conservative Republican leaders!]
