Legislature fights over redistricting in overtime session
In Phoenix a conference committee failed to resolve congressional redistricting during the overtime session. The Senate passed two identical congressional bills and a reapportionment measure, with House amendments and conference setup. The bills redraw districts, adding parts of Maricopa County to the Third District while leaving the Second intact, and set a 33 member Senate with district seats distributed among counties. Minority leaders warned the plan disenfranchises smaller counties as Maricopa dominance grows.
