Illinois HJRCA0028 proposes a constitutional amendment to change how legislative and representative districts are redrawn.
Illinois HJRCA0028 proposes to amend the Illinois Constitution to change the redistricting process for legislative and representative districts. The amendment prioritizes districts being substantially equal in population, ensuring no citizen is denied equal political participation, creating racial coalition districts where practical, and maintaining contiguity and compactness. If the General Assembly fails to redistrict by June 30 following a census, a Legislative Redistricting Commission will be formed to create a plan.
