Fairvote Video on Congressman Don Beyer’s Proportional Representation Bill, HR 3863

Fairvote has posted this short video about Congressman Don Beyer’s proportional representation bill for congressional elections, introduced earlier this month. In states with more than two representatives, the bill would create U.S. House districts with five representatives (or, in some cases, four or three representatives). They would be elected using the single transferable vote system that is used in Ireland, Australia, Malta, and Cambridge, Massachusetts. It was also used in New York city 1937-1946. It is a system of proportional representation.

Congressman Beyer is a Democrat from Virginia’s 8th district. The bill has 7 co-sponsors so far.
