The Michigan Redistricting Collaborative (MRC) is a coalition of nonprofit groups advocating for redistricting reform in Michigan. Announced on February 10, 2011, it is part of the larger Draw the Line Midwest campaign.
Mission
The Michigan Redistricting Collaborative seeks a more transparent and open redistricting process, and to increase public involvement.[1]
They propose four steps to open up the process:
- Require redistricting plans to be available on the Legislature’s web site for 30 days before passage.
- That each chamber be required to hold at least two committee meetings to receive testimony about the plan.
- That the Legislature hold at least four public hearings around the state to allow direct comment by the public.
- That the Legislature provide a statement for each district explaining how the boundaries were drawn and how the district has been changed.[2]
