If a deficit commission looked like America

The new California redistricting commission approved by voters in November 2008 requires a diverse membership reflective in certain ways of California's diversity. Dave Johnson at Campaign for America's Future points out that neither the President's Simpson-Bowles Deficit Reduction Commission nor any other power center working on these issues has a membership that might be considered even slightly diverse. He shows us what an economically, educationally, occupationally, and linguistically representative commission would look like (emphasis his).
