2021 - 2022 LEGISLATURE
October 20, 2021 - Introduced by Senator LeMahieu, cosponsored by
Representative Vos. Referred to Committee on Government Operations,
Legal Review and Consumer Protection.
SB622,1,2
1An Act to repeal and recreate 3.11 to 3.18 of the statutes;
relating to:
2congressional redistricting.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill redistricts, according to the number of inhabitants, the congressional
districts of this state based on the results of the 2020 federal decennial census of
population. In accordance with that census, the bill maintains the number of
congressional districts at eight. All districts created under the bill are composed of
whole counties or municipalities or U.S. census tracts or blocks (subunits of tracts)
reflecting population and boundaries as of April 1, 2020.
Current law requires congressional districts to be as uniform in population as
is practicable. The table below illustrates, for the congressional districts proposed,
the numeric amount and the percentage by which the districts with the smallest and
largest populations deviate from the ideal population for a congressional district.
The population figures contained in the table are derived from the results of the
federal decennial census.

If this bill passes both houses of the legislature, current law requires the
legislative reference bureau, when it enrolls the bill for presentation to the governor
for approval, to attach an updated appendix that includes all of the following: the
population statistics for the congressional districts created under the bill; a
statewide map of the congressional districts created under the bill; a map of the
congressional districts created under the bill that are in Milwaukee County; and,
with certain exceptions, a detail map illustrating the division of any city, village, or
town among two or more congressional districts.
For further information, see the appendix printed at the end of this bill. The
appendix was prepared by the legislative reference bureau and contains the
following information: population statistics for the eight congressional districts, a
statewide map of congressional districts, and a map of each congressional district.
The population data contained in the appendix is derived from the federal decennial
census.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
