Michigan will likely lose one or two congressional districts as people continue to flee that shithole state and have been bleeding population for decades. Apparently, the restricting committee of the state thinks that reciting the Pledge of Allegiance at meets is just too “divisive”. Welcome to Biden/Whitmer’s Michigan.
A video obtained by Fox News shows the Michigan Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission rejecting a request to start their meetings with the Pledge of Allegiance, with some members calling the pledge “divisive” and “contentious.”
The first item of business on the Michigan Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission’s docket Thursday was a request by Commissioner Doug Clark to recite the Pledge of Allegiance prior to the group’s meetings to decide how both state and federal congressional districts would look in the state.
During the Zoom meeting, Commissioner Rebecca Sztetla said that when she traveled to other groups’ meetings, it was a “mixed bag” of whether they recited the pledge or not and that she doesn’t “see how that adds anything to the work of the commission.”
Sztetla also said she doesn’t see how the pledge “advances” the work of the committee and that reciting it will only “add time” to meetings.
“And then I also just think that it’s kind of odd that we’re not a federal board, we’re not a federal agency — we’re an independent commission of Michigan, not the federal government,” said Sztetla. “So why would we be pledging allegiance to the federal government? It just seems a little odd to me.”
