Hi, all.  Updated gig alert.

I know that last week, Marissa sent around the Michigan RFP for VRA counsel to the new independent commission.  There’s apparently a new version, attached, reposted at RedistrictingMichigan.org<http://www.redistrictingmichigan.org/>, and linked directly here: https://www.michigan.gov/documents/sos/Voting_Rights_Act_Attorney_RFP_717769_7.pdf.  The new deadline for bids is March 17.

This should be a really great (and influential) opportunity to support a new institution.

Subject: [EL] VRA attorney urgently needed for MI Redistricting Commission

Passing along information from our Michigan affiliate. There is an open RFP for "expert legal and advisory services specific to the analysis and application of the Voting Rights Act (“VRA”) and other state and federal
laws applicable to redistricting."

They have re-posted the RFP as there have been no proposals submitted thus far. The new deadline is March 10. Please share this with any attorney, firm, or organization that might be a good fit. Obviously, it is
critically important to get a good person/entity in this role advising the newly-formed commission.

Details can be found here:
