Georgia Lawmakers Set Date For First Redistricting Hearing

State lawmakers announced that the first town hall on redistricting will happen on Tuesday. Georgians will be able to testify and give input on the process. Advocates want to make sure that Georgians attend the series of public hearings about re-drawing the state’s voting districts. 

The maps legislators end up re-drawing will be put in place for the next ten years.

Janet Grant is vice chair of Fair Districts GA, a nonpartisan organization. The group created a toolkit for residents who want to testify at the legislative hearings.
