Redistricting Reform

Common Cause Ohio, through our Fair Districts Coalition, is leading the charge to establish a Citizens Redistricting Commission in Ohio, contributing decades of redistricting reform and grassroots mobilization expertise to the Citizens Not Politicians ballot initiative efforts. Our team has recruited, trained, and equipped more than 2,000 volunteers from 45+ counties to collect signatures and ensure the amendment is on the ballot in November 2024.
