       congressional district — to a national popular vote.

       an initiative petition was launched in Michigan. The compact is
       a binding, actionable and realistic reform that utilizes the

       awarding electors without abolishing the Electoral College.

       > Guerrero: Can California Latinos save Democrats in the midterm
       elections? A new congressional map offers hope
       >
       > With new congressional maps based on the 2020 census, the
       number of Latino-majority districts in California has grown to
       16 from 10. The six new majority-Latino districts could help
       Democrats retain control of the House. But it might require more
       from Democrats than they’re willing to give.
       >
       > Although the state lost a congressional seat because of slower
       population growth, the independent redistricting commission’s
       maps approved last month give Latinos more power in line with
       their still-rising numbers. The 16 majority-Latino districts
       make up nearly a third of the state’s now 52 congressional
       seats. The question is whether Democrats can take advantage of
       those new districts to reduce the Republican-held seats in the
       California delegation from the current 10.
       > ...
       > Republicans can win these districts with low Latino turnout. A
       long tradition of Latino exclusion in the Central Valley, which
       persists today at the local level, aggravates distrust in
       politics. That distrust is not "conducive to participation,”
       Jesus Martinez, executive director of the Central Valley
       Immigrant Integration Collaborative, told me.
       >
       > If Democrats want to tap the power of these Latino-majority
       districts, they must invest in in-person, door-to-door outreach
       to these communities, which unevenly benefited from stimulus
       checks, child tax credits and emergency rental assistance
       provided by last year’s American Rescue Plan. The plan was
       rejected by all the state’s Republican members of Congress.
       >
       > It won’t be enough to remind Latinos of what Democrats have
       done and how Republicans have fought against assistance. Given
       the pandemic’s disproportionate toll on Latinos, many will want
       to know how Democrats would prioritize their families’ economic
       recovery as well as healthcare and education access.
       >
       > Citizenship for long-time Latinos who lack legal immigration
       status is also critical because it is inseparable from the
       economic and health prospects of their mixed-status communities.
       So far, Democrats have failed to deliver on that promise.
       >
       > “Latinos are at the periphery of California politics even
       though they’re central to the economy and to its future,” Sonja
       Diaz, founder of UCLA’s Latino Policy & Politics Initiative,
       told me. She said Democrats should seek Latino candidates who
       can speak to the concerns of Latino communities.
       >
       > Many community leaders are optimistic about the long-term
       consequences of redistricting. Along the southern border, there
       will now be two congressional districts that are majority
       Latino. One of the new districts combines the Imperial Valley
       with parts of the Coachella Valley. The old map encompassed San
       Diego with the Imperial Valley.
       >
       > Daniela Flores, co-founder of the Imperial Valley Equity and
       Justice Coalition, explained that the largely agricultural
       concerns of the Imperial Valley will receive more consideration
       now. “We have more political power,” she told me.
       > ...
       > Whether these new districts will turn to Democrats may well
       depend on Latinas driving the vote, in the same way they were
       instrumental in defeating the recall of Gov. Gavin Newsom.
       “They’re the ones politicians would be wise to pay attention
       to,” said Pablo Rodriguez, executive director of Communities for
       a New California Education Fund, noting that Latinas are
       higher-propensity voters than Latinos.
