No on Prop1 Response to Statement On Attorney General Schneiderman's Announcement On Prison-Based Gerrymander

NEW YORK, NY (10/23/2014)(readMedia)-- In response to Citizens Union earlier press release regarding Prison Based Gerrymandering: "It is incontrovertible the constitutional amendment proposed by Prop1 does not address prison based gerrymandering. True reform would not leave advocates and the voters in confusion, but would forthrightly ensure that an express ban was in our state constitution. As in so many other areas, Prop 1 falls short. Reform should clarify not confuse," said Susan Lerner Executive Director Common Cause NY
