Comments on new House redistricting maps

Having worked for years toward a more representative government in PA, we applaud the new map proposed by the House. We are grateful for the amazing and excellent work of the LRC and its chair - who are bravely taking on the challenge of implementing the map and now the challenge of standing up to attacks against their good work. If we are to move toward true representation for ALL the citizens of PA, many of whom have essentially been left out of the political process, we need to enact the new House map. It meets the constitutional requirements, the compactness standard, and general fairness. Please stand firm. With appreciation, Lynn W. Oberfield William J. Oberfield, MD Glen Mills, Pa. 19342
