HJR 54 -- General Assembly

Sponsor:  Bartle

This proposed constitutional amendment reduces the House of
Representatives from 163 members to 105 members and increases the
Senate from 34 members to 35 members.  These changes will be
effective for the 93rd General Assembly (2004-2005).

Redistricting of House and Senate districts will be done by a
single commission, selected and constituted as currently provided
for Senate redistricting.  The redistricting commission will
first determine the 35 Senate districts.  It will then divide
each Senate district into three House districts totally contained
in the Senate district.  Each House district must contain one-
third of the population in the Senate district and be as compact
as can be.
