Dear Community Leaders,

As you know, redistricting - the process of re-drawing state senate, assembly, and congressional election districts - is currently underway. Soon, the Citizens Redistricting Commission will be traveling the state to hear from YOU about where the lines should be drawn. To prepare for this unique opportunity to ensure our voices are heard in government for years to come, the Greenlining Institute will be hosting a statewide teleconference briefing on the 2010 Census Data & California Redistricting.

  • Brief overview of Census 2010 population and demographic data for California
  • Implications of Census data on redistricting plans in 2011
  • Update on Citizens Redistricting Commission outreach / public hearing plan
  • Limited Q & A (as time permits)

Who should attend:

  • Community leaders from grassroots, non-profit, small business, faith, and labor communities
