The plaintiffs in the lawsuit against the Utah State Legislature over independent redistricting are now asking a judge to order new congressional maps to be drawn up before 2026.In a new filing obtained by FOX 13 News, the League of Women Voters, Mormon Women for Ethical Government and others argue that the Utah Supreme Court's ruling in their case should require new maps.
The Utah State Legislature met in special session last week where lawmakers voted to put a constitutional amendment on the November ballot seeking to unwind the Court's ruling. The House Speaker and Senate President have argued that the impact of the Supreme Court's ruling could 'turn Utah into California' with a flood of ballot initiatives and an inability to fix any problems they create.
