Residents are invited to a town hall meeting to discuss "How Redistricting Affects You." Discussion will focus on the effect on minorities of the redrawing of election districts, and how redistricting could affect Congress in the 2012 election.
The featured speaker will be state Sen. Leland Yee. Other speakers include redistricting Commissioner Cynthia Dai, state Assemblyman Jerry Hill and Assemblywoman Sally Lieber.
The event is put on by the Asian Pacific Islander American Public Affairs Association and the San Mateo Chapter of the Organization of Chinese Americans. Refreshments will be served.
