“We are mobilizing nonprofits, to transparently achieve fair and impartial maps for Michigan, specifically to promote racial equity so that communities of color have a voice and participate in important decision-making processes that happen at the local, state, and federal levels,” MNA Director of Civic Engagement Initiatives Mariana Martinez said. “The establishment of the Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission represents a positive change in the way Michigan’s legislative district maps are drawn.”
