AI Summary

This bill proposes to repeal and recreate the legislative redistricting process in Wisconsin. The key provisions are: - It divides the state into 99 assembly districts, each with its own boundaries and population. - The boundaries of these districts are detailed, with each district assigned a number and its geographic area described down to the census block level. - The bill specifies the counties, cities, villages, and towns that make up each assembly district. - This new redistricting plan would replace the existing assembly district boundaries in Wisconsin. The purpose of this bill is to establish new legislative district boundaries for the Wisconsin State Assembly based on the 2020 census data. This is done through a detailed description of the geographic composition of each of the 99 assembly districts across the state. The bill aims to redraw the district maps in accordance with the latest population figures to ensure equal representation.
