AI Summary

  • Amends Florida Constitution to create three independent redistricting commissions (one each for Senate, House, and congressional districts) with 15-member commissions selected through a screening panel process, replacing the current legislature-driven redistricting system

  • Increases the number of legislative districts: Senate districts from 40 to 60, and House districts from 120 to 180

  • Establishes strict eligibility requirements for commissioners, barring current/former elected officials, lobbyists, party officers, campaign staff, legislative employees (within 14-18 years), and their close relatives

  • Requires commissions to produce three district maps approved by two-thirds supermajority including at least 2 independent/minor party commissioners, with the Legislature selecting one map by majority vote (amendments require three-quarters vote)

  • If the Legislature fails to adopt a map, the Florida Supreme Court must select the most compact of the three submitted maps without amendment; the court also has original and exclusive jurisdiction over redistricting litigation
