Republican Congressman Calls to End Redistricting Arms Race
from Political Breakdown · host KQED
Republican Congressman Kevin Kiley’s district currently covers a wide swath of eastern California, running from the Lassen National Forest through the Lake Tahoe region and down to Death Valley in the south. But under a new proposed congressional map approved by Democrats in the state Legislature this week, Kiley’s district would shrink significantly and its constituency would become much more Democratic. Marisa is joined by Kiley to discuss the map’s threat to his reelection prospects and his bill to ban mid-decade redistricting nationally.
