Louisiana SB116 redraws congressional district boundaries based on the 2020 census.
Louisiana SB116 provides for the redistricting of Louisiana's six congressional districts based on the 2020 census. The new districts will be effective for the 2028 congressional elections but will not take full effect until January 3, 2029. The bill specifies the precincts that compose each district and ensures that the districts' boundaries remain unchanged regardless of subsequent changes to precincts by parish governing authorities. The new districts aim to ensure population equality as required by the U.S. Constitution.
