Dr. Jeffrey Grynaviski of Wayne State University will discuss the history of the United States House of Representatives.
About this Event

Dr. Grynaviski will explore how the number of seats in the U.S. House of Representatives was set, how and when the number was set, and why this number has not changed in recent history. He will also reflect on the possible impacts these numbers have on governance and the relationship of representatives to their constituents, and how Michigan's representation has been impacted.

League of Women Voters Detroit and the Detroit Public Library are partnering in talks promoting voter education and tools for action.

A Zoom link will be sent to registrants before the program. We routinely initiate Zoom auto-transcription. If you need further accommodation for accessibility, please notify the organizer by 4:00 p.m. Eastern the Thursday before the program. We will address your need if possible.

A recording will be posted on the Detroit Public Library YouTube channel and on lwvdetroit.org a few weeks after the program.
