YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

A new bill was recently introduced by Rep. Don Beyer that—if passed—would be a game changer in American politics. The bill aims to put an end to gerrymandering, institute a national ranked choice voting (RCV) system, and making representation more proportional by switching to multi-member districts (currently 100% of district in America are single-member districts, which are won with a plurality of votes). The bill—H.R. 3057—already has two cosponsors (Reps. Ro Khanna and Jamie Raskin), and should quickly galvanize grassroots support given that it could end the two-party duopoly once and for all.
