League of Women Voters - "Who Represents Me NOW?" Redistricting and YOU
League of Women Voters of Greater Rockford is fortunate to have Madeleine Doubek, Executive Director of CHANGE IL and Paula Lawson, Issues Specialist on Redistricting, present this webinar. They will walk us through the district remaps for Winnebago and Boone Counties, discuss how maps are drawn, and explain what it will mean to lose a Congressional seat. This informative virtual program will be on Sunday, February 20, at 2 pm. The newly remapped districts will affect everything from Congressional district lines to local county board seats.
Many of us will be in new districts. The 90th IL House district and the 45th IL Senate district have been added to the current 67th, 68th, and 69th House and 34th and 35th Senate. In addition, Illinois has lost a Congressional district.
