The Voters Not Politicians ballot committee and grassroots organization Count MI Vote are co-hosting Redistricting Reform Town Halls across Michigan, and we're coming to Battle Creek!

This is an opportunity for voters to learn about gerrymandering and discuss solutions. It will start with a fun and engaging introduction to the facts, then move into a discussion to hear from you and your neighbors.

Like any good town hall, your ideas and concerns will be heard, your questions answered, and your input used to design change that reflects the will of Michigan voters.

Do you feel like Republican's aren't listening to you? That no matter how many times you call or write, they blindly put party over country and vote to gut pre-existing conditions, raise premiums and throw over 23 million people off of Medicaid? Well this is the town hall for you! Come out to make you voice heard, ask your elected officials questions directly and find out how we can set up a state-level defense right here in Michigan.

RESCHEDULED FOR AUGUST 19 from 2PM - 4PM
