AI Summary
This bill establishes new legislative districts for the Wyoming Senate and House of Representatives based on the 2020 census data. It repeals and recreates existing statutes to define the new districts, including how they are organized and described using census blocks, voter tabulation districts, and county boundaries. The bill aims to recognize county boundaries, communities of interest, common economic interests, and historical representative practices in Wyoming, while also addressing the challenges of representation posed by the state's geographic boundaries and rural nature. The new districts will be in effect for the 2022 general election cycle and the 67th Legislature.
