As controversy swirls over the comprehensive new voting law that drastically alters Georgia’s election system, another battle with equally profound implications looms on the horizon: redistricting.
In the coming months, state lawmakers will begin redrawing the lines of Georgia’s legislative and congressional districts, a process that will help determine control of the state government and its policies for at least the next 10 years.

The Georgia Senate overwhelmingly approved a bill to modernize the stateâs HIV laws on Monday. The bipartisan show of support impressed HIV activists fighting for years to reform state laws that criminalize HIV.
Senate Bill 164 won approval with a 50-2 vote. The bill from Sen. Chuck Hufstetler, a Republican from Rome, passed on Crossover Day â the deadline to keep the measure alive for the remainder of the legislative session.Â
âWe are extremely pleased that this bill passed the Senate with such a strong bipartisan majority vote,â said Jeff Graham, executive director of Georgia Equality. âFrankly, itâs even stronger bipartisan support than we saw when the same legislation passed the House last year.â
