Limiting Congressional Redistricting After Census
This new law aims to limit how often congressional district boundaries can be redrawn after a census. It means that once new districts are set, they cannot be changed again until the next census, unless a court orders such changes. This is intended to bring more stability and predictability to the election process.
Key points
Congressional districts can only be redrawn once after each decennial census.
Further redistricting is only allowed if mandated by a court to comply with the Constitution or the Voting Rights Act.
The law does not affect how states conduct elections for state or local offices.
