Redistricting: congressional districts.
- Establishes new conditions for implementing California's congressional district boundaries pending voter approval.
- Requires another state to adopt new congressional districts between August 2025 and January 2031.
- Takes effect immediately as an urgency measure to ensure timely redistricting implementation.
- Specifies that new district maps cannot be the result of federal court orders.
Assembly Members Bryan and Berman's redistricting legislation modifies the conditions under which California's proposed new congressional district boundaries would take effect, linking their implementation to both in-state voter approval and redistricting actions by other states.
The bill establishes two prerequisites for activating the congressional district boundaries outlined in Assembly Bill 604. First, California voters must approve Assembly Constitutional Amendment 8. Second, either Texas, Florida, or another state must adopt new congressional district maps between August 1, 2025, and January 1, 2031, through processes not mandated by federal courts. For Ohio specifically, any new map would qualify only if adopted under division (F)(3) of Section 1, Article XIX of the Ohio Constitution.
The measure includes an urgency clause allowing it to take effect immediately upon passage, rather than following the standard January 1 implementation date. According to the bill's findings, immediate implementation would expedite redistricting plans and uphold Californians' equal protection rights. The legislation requires a two-thirds vote for passage but contains no new appropriations.
