TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Legislators finished work on their legislative redistricting maps on Thursday as a unanimous Senate approved a Florida House map and gave final approval to a Senate map. The new configurations position Republicans to be able to remain in control of the Legislature for the next decade.
Senate Joint Resolution 100, which includes the Senate and House legislative maps, now goes to the Florida Supreme Court for a final review before it becomes law and takes effect for the 2022 election cycle.
The Senate passed the redistricting bill 37-0 with no discussion Thursday, following a House vote of 77-39 along party lines on Wednesday.
