Establishes requirements for judicial actions challenging state congressional redistricting plans.
The bill sets up specific procedures for handling lawsuits challenging state congressional redistricting plans. It mandates that upon a request for a 3-judge court, the district court judge must notify the chief judge of the circuit, who will then randomly select two other judges to form the court. The bill also outlines expedited consideration for such cases and allows for a single judge to conduct most proceedings except the trial. If the state fails to propose a remedial plan, the court can adopt a replacement plan. The bill grants exclusive jurisdiction to U.S.
