This bill creates a permanent joint committee that will meet every ten years (starting in 2031) to help redraw state legislative district lines after the census. The committee will have 15 legislators—eight from one chamber and seven from the other, with the larger group alternating between the House and Senate each cycle—and will be co-chaired by one House and one Senate member with staff support from the Legislative Research Council.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
