Utah Redistricting Lawsuit Moves Forward

(Salt Lake City, UT) — A lawsuit challenging Utah’s congressional boundaries continues, with the case judge asking for additional arguments by April 8th. The plaintiffs, including the League of Women Voters, argue the legislature violated Prop 4, which established an independent redistricting commission. The case, which began in 2018, could lead to the invalidation of the maps drawn by the legislature in 2020, following the weakening of Prop 4. The ruling could impact redistricting before the 2026 elections.
