Virginia voters are being asked to approve a constitutional amendment on April 21 that would allow politicians in Richmond to redraw congressional districts outside of the normal 10-year cycle.

Right now, districts are drawn once per decade by the Virginia Redistricting Commission.

This proposal would give the General Assembly the ability to step in mid-decade and redraw maps if another state does the same.

From a gun owners perspective, this is a serious problem.

The same politicians pushing aggressive gun control would gain more control over how districts are drawn. That means fewer fair and competitive elections, and fewer opportunities to push back on anti-2A legislation.

Virginia has already seen a steady stream of gun control proposals this legislative session. Locking in a political advantage through redistricting makes it much harder to stop or reverse those efforts.

Similar efforts in states like California have shown how redistricting can be used to protect political power and limit real voter choice by gerrymandering away strong districts that vote for freedom when it comes to our gun rights.

If politicians can redraw districts whenever it benefits them, they can insulate themselves from voters who oppose their policies, including gun owners.
