Bill > S2670

This bill, the Redistricting Reform Act of 2021, proposes to require congressional redistricting to be conducted through a plan developed by an independent redistricting commission in each state, with specific criteria for the composition and operations of the commission. The bill also provides for the establishment of related entities, such as a nonpartisan agency and a select committee, to facilitate the redistricting process. Additionally, the bill outlines the role of courts in the development of redistricting plans, and includes provisions for payments to states and civil enforcement mechanisms. The bill would apply to redistricting carried out pursuant to the 2030 census and subsequent censuses, with certain requirements also applying to redistricting based on the 2020 census.
