PUBLIC COMMENT
The public has the right to address the Commission and the Commission welcomes the public’s comments. The public may do so in two different ways: (1) written comments which will be entered into the permanent public record for the meeting; and (2) speaking live to the Commission remotely. Further instruction on each method is listed below.
1) Written public comment to the Commission may be submitted via the Commission’s public comment portal available at Michigan-Mapping.org
2) Requests to speak remotely may be made live during the Zoom meeting by raising your virtual hand.

MICRC Public Comment Period is Underway
Last week, Michigan’s Independent Citizens’ Redistricting Commission advanced 10 potential Commission-drawn state House District maps to a public comment period. Whichever map is chosen, the Commission needs to listen to public input and make necessary improvements to ensure a fair, representative map. The public comment period is already underway and will conclude on February 24. Details on the Commission’s upcoming meetings are available here. General information and resources on the redistricting process are available from PTV here.
