‘Moral conflict’ drives Democratic doubts about Gavin Newsom’s redistricting plan

Cal Matters

Jeanne Kuang
August 20, 2025
As Republicans lambasted California lawmakers for rushing through their effort to gerrymander the state’s congressional map, Democrats are facing a quieter angst in their own party.
To counter what they call President Donald Trump’s undemocratic power grab for Republican seats in Texas, they’re asking voters to temporarily ditch California’s nonpartisan map-drawing process — touted as a national gold standard for fair elections and good governance — in favor of a politico-drawn map to tilt seats in Democrats’ favor.
At the polls, they’ll have to overcome not just Republican opponents but also some Democrats and independent voters who say California shouldn’t respond to partisan gerrymandering in Texas with the same frowned-upon tactics at home.
“This is the kind of moral conflict that, if this goes to the ballot, that every California voter is going to be faced with,” said Sara Sadhwani, a political science professor, Democrat and member of the state’s independent redistricting commission, at a hearing over the measures Tuesday.

Higher Ed’s Accountability Moment

Inside Higher Ed

Jennifer Cowley
August 20, 2025
With an ROI rule coming into force, higher ed must respond with responsibility and intention, Jennifer Cowley writes.
Higher education institutions must increasingly hold ourselves accountable, not only for what our students accomplish on campus, but also for what they do or don’t do afterward: the jobs they take, the salaries they earn and whether they reliably pay back their student loans. When we talk about student success, we must expand the discussion to include careers, paychecks and financial stability.
This push for accountability isn’t coming just from within. Universities face external pressures as well, from the drumbeat of surveys showing American families are increasingly skeptical of higher education to state and federal governments demanding evidence of the return on their investments. It’s time we better align our outcomes with what the economy demands and the nation needs, placing greater emphasis on the real-world success of our graduates.
