Pennsylvania Legislator Files Federal Lawsuit to Stop the Use of 2000 Census Data for Legislative Districts

As reported earlier, last week the Pennsylvania Supreme Court invalidated the Redistricting Commission’s redistricting plan for Pennsylvania legislative districts, and the Pennsylvania Supreme Court also said the districts that have been in place for ten years should be used in the meantime.

On January 30, the Speaker of the Pennsylvania House filed a federal lawsuit, arguing that the U.S. Constitution does not permit the use of the old districts, because population has shifted since 2000. See this story.

    How about nonstop Fed Grand Jury indictments of the robot party hacks in the States ???
