Redistricting panel to get input on maps
HARRISBURG — State lawmakers are among the 29 people who have signed up to share their thoughts on the latest set of maps for Pennsylvania’s House and Senate districts.
The Legislative Reapportionment Commission meets in Harrisburg this afternoon as it continues its quest to pass legally binding boundaries for 203 seats in the House and 50 in the Senate.
Its previous effort was thrown out by the state Supreme Court in January.
The commission will hold a second hearing to gather public input next week.
Among those on the agenda to speak is Republican Senate President Joe Scarnati.
The commission includes the House and Senate floor leaders of both parties.
