Change how members of the House of Representatives are elected by using multi-member districts and ranked choice voting.
One policy goal, tracked across every bill that has carried it.
What’s happening with Fair Representation Act?
The Fair Representation Act is represented by H.R. 4632, which has remained in the House Judiciary and House Administration committees since July 22, 2025. Committee leaders must act next to schedule a vote, but the bill faces the binding constraint of historical precedent where most legislation never receives a committee hearing. This effort has seen no recorded progress for 11 months, which is a common outcome for bills introduced in the House.
