House Speaker Calvin Storwig said detailed precinct and ward data are needed to remap 125 House districts and 40 Senate districts, with Bunten noting federal figures may not arrive. Senate hearings on the Uniform Consumer Credit Code begin Jan 25, amid support from consumer advocates and opposition from bankers.
