Reform That Unites Illinois

Fair Maps Illinois is supported by respected leaders from across the political spectrum—because ending gerrymandering isn’t a partisan issue. It’s a democratic one.

Leading The Fair Maps Illinois Amendment Effort:

Bill Daley

Former White House Chief of Staff under President Obama
U.S. Secretary of Commerce under President Clinton
“We’ve needed Fair Maps in Illinois for years. We’ve learned from past efforts at reform. This amendment is carefully designed to succeed where others failed.”

Ray LaHood

U.S. Secretary of Transportation under President Obama
U.S. Congressman, Illinois 18th District (1995–2009)
“This is about fairness and trust. Gerrymandering breeds corruption—Fair Maps bring accountability.”

Fair Maps Illinois is a citizen-led effort, powered by everyday Illinoisans who are tired of broken politics and ready to fix our democracy—together. 

This effort is not controlled by any political party or politician. Good government is essential to all voters regardless of their political persuasion. Our coalition has one mission—voters should choose their politicians, not the other way around.

“All we’re asking for [is] an end to the antidemocratic and un-American practice of gerrymandering… It has become a national scandal.”

— Ronald Reagan

“Gerrymandering makes the incentive for politicians to play to the extremes of their base rather than the center.”

— Barack Obama
