Bill Summary
An Act To Bring Forward Section 23-15-1037, Mississippi Code Of 1972, Which Apportions The State Into Four Congressional Districts, For The Purpose Of Amendment; And For Related Purposes.
AI Summary
This bill reapportions Mississippi into four congressional districts, meaning it redraws the boundaries for the state's U.S. House of Representatives seats. The bill specifies which counties and, in some cases, which specific precincts within counties, will belong to each of the First, Second, Third, and Fourth Congressional Districts. These boundaries are based on existing county lines as they were on January 1, 2022, and precinct lines as defined in the U.S. Census Bureau's 2020 Census redistricting data, which is used to ensure each district has a roughly equal population.
