As part of the People Powered Fair Maps Program of the League of Women Voters, local Leagues across Michigan are holding virtual town hall events to educate Michigan residents on the Michigan Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission’s (MICRC) process in drawing new legislative and congressional maps. The Dearborn-Dearborn Heights LWV, in partnership with AAUW – Dearborn Branch, ACCESS, and Western Wayne County NAACP, held its virtual Town Hall on Thursday, April 22, 2021 at 7:00 pm.
In addition to learning about the MICRC, attendees learned about Communities of Interest (COI), which will be an important criterion when district lines are drawn. MICRC member Anthony Eid joined the Town Hall to provide a brief presentation that included information on submitting testimony to the commission.
Thanks to all for attending!
