The Florida House on Friday agreed to back off an attempt to weaken the Fair Districts amendments to the Florida Constitution and passed a narrower Senate proposal that sets new guidelines for what happens when redistricting legal cases are unresolved in election years.
With no discussion, the House voted 116-0 for SB 352 and sent it to the governor. On Thursday, it replaced its bill, HB 953, with the Senate bill with no discussion. The Senate passed its measure 24-14.
It was a significant departure for the House, which had advanced a measure that would have required any challenges to a redistricting map to occur within 60 days after the maps are passed, effectively short-circuiting the time challengers can obtain records and documents to prepare a case. The House also wanted to turn the tables on the judiciary by subjecting judges in redistricting disputes to cross-examination.
