Bill > AJR5

This resolution proposes an amendment to the Nevada Constitution that would require the state Legislature to follow the same transparency and public access rules when establishing or revising legislative district boundaries as other governmental entities. Specifically, when drawing or adjusting district lines following the decennial census, legislators would be subject to existing state laws regarding open meetings and public records access. This means that the redistricting process would need to be conducted in public meetings that allow citizen attendance and observation, and any related documents would be available for public inspection and copying, just like records from other government agencies. The resolution aims to increase transparency and public accountability in the redistricting process by ensuring that legislators cannot make district boundary decisions behind closed doors or without public scrutiny. The changes would apply to future redistricting efforts following the decennial census, with the resolution becoming effective immediately upon its passage.
