Recess! Not Adjourn
At the close of the legislative session on April 22, the House and Senate recessed in order to come back in the fall to do redistricting. They are also planning to return May 10th to make technical corrections. Sadly, as the Governor signed the hateful SB 251 into law, I guess we don’t have to worry legislators will use May 10 to override his veto for which so many of us had asked.
They have until mid-November to come back to do redistricting. Action you can take is to continue to contact your representatives and senators to ask them to use an independent, non-partisan body to draw those lines. Left in the control of the supermajority, look for supermajority in ALL CAPS.
