Reapportionment Bills Face Committee Decision
A North Carolina committee backed two apportionment bills with an amendment by Sen. Luther Hamilton. One plan shifts reapportionment to a commission if the Legislature does not act, the other proposes constitutional changes increasing House seats to 190, restricting counties to two senators, and limiting senators to four counties.
