Republicans blasted the proposed maps as 'Gerrymandering 101'

SPRINGFIELD – House and Senate redistricting committees will hold a series of public hearings this week on a proposed new set of legislative maps that Democrats released late Friday, despite the fact that official census data won’t be available until later this year.
The Democrats’ decision to release the maps after 7:30 p.m. Friday, combined with the fact that the majority party also has not divulged all of the data sources they used to draw the maps, drew sharp criticism from Republicans, who called on Gov. JB Pritzker to veto the maps if they pass.    ....

Illinois House Republicans on Monday blasted Democrats for the “lowest of lows” in their release of new legislative maps, accusing the majority party of trying to “ramrod” the proposed redrawn boundaries through the General Assembly just a week before it’s scheduled to adjourn.
The Republican legislators called on Gov. J.B. Pritzker to veto the maps if the Legislature passes them.
“[The Democrats] scheduled four public hearings this week, two of which are on the same day, in an attempt to ramrod these maps through the General Assembly before May 31,” said House Republican Leader Jim Durkin. ....

Illinois Democrats offer new legislative boundary maps for the next decade


Illinois Democrats on Friday evening gave the public its first look at their proposed maps containing new boundary lines for Illinois’ 118 state House and 59 state Senate districts that would be in place for the next decade starting with primary elections in March.
Facing a June 30 deadline to produce and enact the maps, or give Republicans a 50-50 chance at drawing the new boundary lines, Democrats will seek to act quickly in hearings scheduled for next week to advance their redistricting plans by the scheduled end-of-May adjournment date.
Since Republicans count as a superminority in the legislature and Democrat J.B. Pritzker is in the governor’s office, the GOP is largely shut out of the mapmaking process as occurred a decade ago. Those Democratic maps produced Democratic majorities of 73-45 in the House, 41-18 in the Senate. ....
