A state constitutional amendment in Virginia is being pushed for by the state legislature to temporarily adopt new congressional districts to restore fairness in upcoming elections. The amendment would allow the state to draw its own House districts. This move is seen as a way to "restore fairness" and counterbalance off-cycle gerrymandering in other states. However, it is not clear that this strategy is effective, as there is no agreement on what a level playing field would look like and it could result in a destructive chain reaction that weakens the voices of voters rather than achieve greater fairness. Critics argue that this attempt to level the national playing field with state-level gerrymander could destroy the health of the political process it's meant to save.
