Draw my CA- Redistricting in California

In November 2008, California voters passed the Voters FIRST Act, authorizing the creation of the Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission to draw new district lines, taking the job out of the hands of the California Legislature and transferring it to the citizens. In 2010, the VOTERS FIRST Act for Congress added the responsibility of drawing Congressional districts to the Commission. Join Kimberly Briggs from the Citizens Redistricting Commission to learn more about how you can participate in this process.

Prior to joining the Commission, Kimberly Briggs was involved in Census work as a Communications Coordinator for the Office of Mayor Eric Garcetti in the City of Los Angeles. There she conducted outreach to Los Angeles City Departments, external stakeholders, and community members. She delivered presentations and assisted with outreach events. She also created their digital campaign, including social media toolkits, ads, video scripts, and coordinated their translation and remediation. Ms. Briggs also worked for the Los Angeles County Department of Consumer and Business Affairs, worked for City of Los Angles Councilmember Bernard Park’s Office, worked for the City of Los Angeles Office of the City Clerk-Elections Division, and the Workforce Investment Board. She is a graduate from USC with a degree in Journalism/Sociology.
