BATON ROUGE — Senate and Governmental Affairs Committee members met beginning Tuesday evening and into the early hours of Wednesday as they considered competing congressional redistricting proposals; just before 12:30 a.m. Wednesday May 13, the committee voted 4-3 to reject Senate Bill 407, the map authored by Sen. Ed Price that would have retained two majority-democrat districts. This week the committee then focused on Senate Bill 121 from Sen. Jay Morris and other proposed plans, and after more than eight hours of public testimony a map with one majority-minority district was advanced in committee early Wednesday; the hearing followed a U.S. Supreme Court ruling and Gov. Jeff Landry's halt of U.S. House races, and further legislative and legal steps are expected in coming days.
