One of the primary policy areas of concern for Ohio Legislative Black Caucus Foundation (OLBCF) is Redistricting. We encourage a TRANSPARENT, FAIR, AND NON-PARTISAN REDISTRICTING PROCESS.
Barbara Sykes represents the Foundation on the Ohio Citizen’s Redistricting Commission (OCRC). The OCRC is an independent, non-partisan commission. The Commission ‘s goals: (1) Model thorough and robust engagement process; (2) Develop and demonstrate citizen-derived principles of redistricting; (3) Draw maps based on community input and feedback.
The work of OCRC will be culminated into a report including recommendations and a unity map(s), which will be submitted to the official Ohio Redistricting Commission.
Barbara attended the official hearings the week of August 23rd.
