Establishes an Independent Redistricting Commission to draw congressional and legislative districts.
This bill proposes constitutional amendments to establish an Independent Redistricting Commission in Minnesota. The commission will draw boundaries for congressional and legislative districts following a decennial census. It consists of 15 members, selected to reflect the state's diversity. Members must not have conflicts of interest and cannot participate in political campaigns for ten years after their term. The commission must hold public hearings, consider public input, and ensure districts are contiguous, compact, and respect natural geographic boundaries.
