It's time to make your voice heard--so it will be heard 
during the next 10 years!


The Indiana Legislative public hearings scheduled for August 6, 7, and  11 will give the public opportunity to speak out about criteria to be applied to drawing new legislative district maps that will be with us for the next 10 years.  Too often in years past, the new maps have been assembled almost entirely behind closed doors, giving the public little opportunity to weigh in. These public meetings are an important step toward transparency.  But they will make a difference only if many of us, average citizens, pay attention and participate.

Please identify one of the hearings you can attend.  

Invite friends, relatives, neighbors, and colleagues to attend the hearing with you!
