WATSON COLEMAN STATEMENT ON NEW JERSEY CONGRESSIONAL REDISTRICTING COMMISSION MAP
EWING – Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman today released the following statement on the Congressional Redistricting Commission map for New Jersey:
“I applaud the Commissioners on both sides for their commitment to this process, for the additional public hearings held both virtually and in person, and the time and thoughtfulness put forth to achieve a map that represents the spirit of the Voting Rights Act and our Constitution for representation for all New Jerseyans.
I want to thank Justice Wallace for his astute considerations when weighing what was before him as well as Chairwoman Fuller for holding the line on representation.
I’ve been blessed to serve NJ12 for six years and look forward to continuing this service. This map presents an opportunity for me to broaden the work I’ve been doing in Somerset County and diligently serve those constituents.
New Jersey continues to be a model for upholding the tenants of fair representation.”
