8 - The Michigan Daily - Monday, July 28, 2003 N.LT - -. - N EWS- CONNERLY Continued from Page 1 his supporters are hiring National Petition Manage- ment to collect signatures starting in September, at a cost of around $800,000-900,000. Rep. Jack Brandenburg (R-Harrison Twp.) and Rep. Leon Drolet (R-Clinton Twp.) were chosen to be co-chairs of the committee. "We're glad to be working with them," ACRC spokesman Justin Jones said. "They will oversee the effort statewide and everything that entails," he said, adding their duties will include organizing fundraising, ' signature gathering, and coali- tion building. The steering committee's "responsibilities are to bring insight, advice and support to the initiative," Drolet said. Brandenburg said he first became interested in working with Connerly after the Supreme Court handed down Connerly its decision on whether or not the University could use race-conscious admissions. "It was brought to my attention that we could put this to the ballot test. Let the people vote on this. It "Let the people vote on this. It is tax dollars - our tax dollars, that's funding (the University)." - Rep.Jack Brandenburg R-Harrison Twp. 4 is tax dollars - our tax dollars, that's funding (the University)," Brandenburg said. The University declined to comment on Connerly or the MCRI. Brandenburg said he and Drolet are planning to meet with Connerly and his supporters in the next week or so to further plan the campaign. "Ward Connerly's people will be sending in vol- unteers themselves. What we would like to do on a county by county basis is get somebody who is a politically elected person with some volunteers and signatures - as many signatures as possible from each county," Brandenburg said. While getting the issue on the ballot only requires that they collect around 317,000 signa- tures, Brandenburg said they would aim at collect- ing between 400,000 and 500,000, because of the possibility of invalid signatures. Also, he said the more signatures they collect, the more voters will know that the public stands behind the initiative. Rep. Jack Hoogendyk, a member of the commit- tee, said it is still in its early stages and he is not sure how involved he will be. He said he was disap- pointed by the manner in which opposition to the MCRI voiced their protest. "They certainly had a right to be there, butI think they would have done themselves better by being a little more respectful." Connerly also commented on the presence of the Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action and Inte- gration and Fight for Equality By Any Means Nec- essary at the event, saying, "They're troublemakers. They don't respect civility. "Anyone who criticizes racism and segregation in this country as strongly as we do is likely to become criticized," LSA senior and BAMN mem- ber Neal Lyons said. "What's so civil about segre- gation?" He added that once legal language of the ballot is finalized, BAMN plans to boycott any company or organization that signs on asa sponsor. While Rep. Rick Shaffer (R-Three Rivers) was originally named as a steering committee member, he later told the Associated Press that the ACRC announced his name by mistake. 4 4 the michigan daily BEST One Bedn campus rentals Fun 1335 South University AnnArbor, M 48104 Over 41 Locations Fine campus housing since1938 ww Select from One, Two, Three and Four Bedroom Apartments, Bi-Levels and Tri-Levels Whole Houses with Free Parking 734 665-8825 RIVER'S EDGE APARTMENTS !!!!
