A proposal to require US states to select legislative districts through a nonpolitical system.

Gerrymandering undermines democracy, and these committees might be a good idea. I am not sure the federal government has the power to impose this on states.

However, it is a mistake to say that gerrymandering allows "politicians to draw their own districts". Rather, state legislatures draw the districts for the House of Representatives. They sometimes do this so as to kick a real hero such as Dennis Kucinich out of Congress.
