Clock ticking on fair maps amendment as priorities shift – State Journal-Register

The Illinois House and Senate have until May 3 to approve a joint resolution that would change the process of how congressional and state legislative maps are drawn in Illinois. Each house would need to approve with a three-fifths vote – 71 votes in the House and 36 in the Senate. Gov. JB Pritzker campaigned on reforming the redistricting process, often saying he would veto any map he thought was unfair.
