The Michigan Chamber of Commerce July 9 issued a statement to "set the record straight" on the debate over the redistricting ballot proposal. It reads in part: "The proposed redistricting ballot proposal would drastically rewrite Michigan's Constitution to change the basic foundation of state governing structure by removing the voice of the Governor, Legislature and Courts in the redistricting process, replacing three branches of government with a randomly drawn 13-member commission that would be unelected and unaccountable," said Jim Holcomb, Executive Vice President & General Counsel for the Michigan Chamber.
