AIRC Update: Weekend schedule of public hearings added – your testimony is requested

Posted by AzBlueMeanie:

The Arizona Independent Redistricting Commission (AIRC) had hoped to complete the state legislative district "draft map" by the end of the week, but the commission has added an additional three days of public hearings over the long Columbus Day holiday weekend and another on Tuesday. This gives those of you who work Monday thru Friday an opportunity to attend these meetings and make your voices heard. This is your last chance to have any input into the "draft map" before it is finalized and goes out for the second round of public hearings.
