Senate Passes Alignment Bill Amid Unconstitutional Challenge
In Harrisburg the Senate narrowly approved a reapportionment bill after Democratic protests that it would be unconstitutional. The vote came hours before a federal panel in Philadelphia would hear a suit by five taxpayers seeking to block action until the courts set groundwork. Several Republicans shifted to support the measure, while Democrats argued it creates districts with unequal populations and will be struck down. The bill moves to the House for concurrence as debates over constitutional compliance continue.
