A message from the Colorado Republican Party
View this email in your browser ([link removed])
Hello everyone-
The Colorado Independent Congressional Redistricting Commission released the
first staff plan map ([link removed]) on Friday evening. Unfortunately, the commissioners chose to put the interests of the urban Front Range first by diluting the voice of rural Colorado and completely changed the map from the first preliminary Congressional maps ([link removed]) released in June that were the subject of 36 hearings across the state.
This map prioritizes the interests of the Denver Metro (other than Republican Douglas County) and targets the voices of rural Coloradans. The commission also chose to split up the Western Slope, despite the voices of the people who live there.
This week will be the final chance for YOU to weigh in and give the commission your feedback on the Congressional maps.
You can do that by signing up below for a virtual time slot on September 8th, 9th or 10th.
You can also submit a written comment ([link removed]) by clicking the link below.

(First Staff Plan Map released on September 5, 2021)
If you care about fair lines and competitive districts, please sign-up to speak with the commission ([link removed]) .
The professional staff that works for the redistricting commission did a good job taking what they were mandated by the commissioners to do and still creating competitive districts. There is more to this process and it is likely that the proposed maps will change again.
Please encourage those who care about fair lines to sign-up and speak to the commission this week. This is our last opportunity to weigh in through verbal testimony!
Thanks,
Joe Jackson
Executive Director | Colorado GOP
