Michigan HJRW modifies the ineligibility period for independent citizens redistricting commissioners to run for partisan office.

Michigan HJRW amends the state constitution to modify the period a commissioner on the independent citizens redistricting commission is ineligible to hold a partisan elective office. The bill specifies that a commissioner is ineligible for five years after their term ends, rather than until December 31 of the year immediately following the year of the subsequent federal decennial census. This change aims to ensure timely participation of experienced individuals in the political process while maintaining the integrity of the redistricting process.
