Census in Pa.: What the latest figures mean for legislative and congressional seats J.D. Prose Pennsylvania State Capital Bureau SKIP The Census data drop that occurred Thursday now sets the clock in motion for legislative and congressional redistricting decisions that will draw from the population gains in eastern Pennsylvania and losses in the west.
Common Cause Pennsylvania executive director Khalif Ali said in a statement that it is time to “flip the script” and heed the voices Black, Latinx, Asian and other minority communities.
“When redistricting is fair, transparent, and includes everyone, our maps are more likely to be representative and secure, free, fair and responsive elections for the next decade,” Ali said.
