OneVirginia2021 is an American civic non-profit organization founded to advocate for a non-partisan redistricting of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
This committee drafted a model constitutional amendment, which was proposed to the Virginia State Assembly in the 2019 session.
It would create a sixteen-member advisory commission and establish redistricting criteria for congressional and state legislative districts.
