Hello San Bernardino Council, Mayor, & Staff,
I am writing to you in support of this legislative body adopting an independent or
hybrid redistricting commission in order to limit bias, prevent gerrymandering, and
build trust among stakeholders. An independent or hybrid redistricting commission
would empower voters to truly hold our representatives accountable in determining
our districts for the next decade in an equitable manner in compliance with applicable
laws and the U.S. Constitution.
I look forward to engaging with all stakeholders throughout this process.
Sincerely,
James Albert
7th Ward Constituent
