From Kent County GOP 9/30/21
Yesterday, the MI Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission went rogue by drawing a congressional district draft map that includes the City of Grand Rapids with the City of Kalamazoo. Who has advocated for them to do this? No one! Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo have little in common and should NOT be considered a community of interest. The current maps also split many of the suburban areas of Grand Rapids from the City in a separate congressional district, including Ada, Sparta, Cedar Springs, Rockford, Lowell. Instead, these areas would be drawn in a congressional district all the way to the City of Midland! If you're from one of these suburbs, you don't say you're from Midland, you say you're from Grand Rapids. Clearly this was drawn to benefit the Democratic Party by packing their voters within one Congressional District. We cannot let this happen!
We need YOUR help to send a message to the Commission to reject this proposed map. Here are four ways you can help:
