Prison gerrymandering distorts democracy by counting incarcerated people as residents of the places where prisons are located rather than in the communities where they are from and where their families live. Under this system, incarcerated people end up being “represented” by elected officials who they cannot vote for and who have no connection to their family, friends, neighborhoods, or political communities.

Join us as we work to end prison gerrymandering in Michigan and ensure that everyone has access to resources that improve the quality of life in our communities.
