So let us do that.

I'm Will Brownsberger, State
Senator, Senate co-chair

00:00:15.780 --> 00:00:19.650 align:middle line:84%
of the redistricting committee,
joint redistricting committee.

00:00:19.650 --> 00:00:22.680 align:middle line:84%
I'm joined here by my house
co-chair Representative Mike

00:00:22.680 --> 00:00:28.080 align:middle line:84%
Moran, and this is a hearing
of the joint redistricting

Massachusetts legislature,

being conducted in English

Today is July 20th.

00:00:41.276 --> 00:00:48.500 align:middle line:84%
It's 4:00 PM, and so what
I think we should do--

00:00:48.500 --> 00:00:51.320 align:middle line:84%
I see that we don't actually
have anybody signed up

00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:56.810 align:middle line:84%
to testify or present online
at this time to testify,

00:00:56.810 --> 00:00:59.360 align:middle line:84%
and so perhaps we should
just take the opportunity

00:00:59.360 --> 00:01:01.100 align:middle line:84%
to say a few words
about the process,

00:01:01.100 --> 00:01:04.220 align:middle line:84%
have them translated
into Mandarin Chinese,

00:01:04.220 --> 00:01:09.694 align:middle line:84%
and be available for
people to view so--

and that could be
spelled out, and somebody

00:03:10.820 --> 00:03:14.330 align:middle line:84%
could put that in the
chat while we're talking.

watching this, you've

probably already found
your way to that.

input in writing,

input in any language,

we'll endeavor to make sure that
it's translated for us and we

This will happen
again at 6:00, right?

Maybe?

I don't believe anybody's
signed up at 6:00 either.
