Michigan City council adopts resolution opposing mid‑decade congressional redistricting
The Michigan City Common Council unanimously adopted a resolution on Nov. 4 opposing proposals to redraw Indiana's congressional districts outside the post‑census, decennial process.

Sponsor Councilman Coulter said the resolution opposes any special session called to perform mid‑decade redistricting and argued such a move "departs from the framework" established in the Indiana Constitution and statutes. He read the resolution into the record, saying mid‑decade maps would "invite legal challenges" and could undermine public trust.

Councilman Przybylinski, a co‑sponsor, said the measure reflects concern that partisan mid‑decade map changes would work to predetermine partisan outcomes, not to ensure "one person, one vote."

The council opened the resolution for public comment; one resident urged consistency and criticized perceived hypocrisy in politics but did not change the council's unanimous vote to adopt the resolution.

The council directed that certified copies be sent to the governor and state legislative leaders.
