This bill mandates that states utilize independent nonpartisan commissions for congressional redistricting , starting with the redistricting following the 2020 decennial census. It also links federal funding for election administration to states adopting similar commission-based redistricting for their state legislative districts , requiring certification to the Election Assistance Commission. To qualify as a nonpartisan independent commission, its membership must include an equal number of individuals affiliated with the two largest political parties in the state. Additionally, none of its members may be elected public officials, ensuring impartiality and reducing partisan influence in the redistricting process.
