SYRACUSE, NY – The committee set up by state legislators to redraw the state's political boundaries got a lot of advice during its public hearing Tuesday in Syracuse.

WRVO's Ellen Abbott tells us that among the advice was a call for the committee to shut itself down.

WRVO is at a critical moment.
