California Republican to Introduce Bill Banning Middecade Redistricting
SACRAMENTO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, AUG 4 – Rep. Kiley aims to stop partisan mid-decade redistricting ahead of the 2026 elections to prevent states from redrawing maps for political advantage, citing constitutional authority.
- On Tuesday, Rep. Kevin Kiley will introduce legislation to bar all 50 states from using new maps for the 2026 elections.
- Amid Texas’s partisan map efforts, California Rep. Kevin Kiley plans to introduce legislation to ban redistricting mid-decade, responding to Texas Republicans creating new districts this year.
- On Sunday, dozens of Democratic members of the Texas House of Representatives fled to Illinois and other locales to block the session and face $500-per-day fines.
- The bill would nullify any potential changes to Texas’s maps now being considered and benefit Kiley’s 2026 congressional run.
- Amid nationwide map battles, governors of Democratic-led states, including Gov. Gavin Newsom, have threatened to push plans favoring Democrats, while Illinois, New York, Florida, Missouri, and Indiana consider similar measures.
