Welcome to

It looks like the Florida House and Senate are disagreeing again, this time over the congressional voting district maps they were forced to redraw.

The Florida House rejected amendments proposed Monday and will vote on the “base” congressional district map Tuesday.  Legislators have questioned the Supreme Court’s decision to find the original maps unconstitutional, and there’s no guarantee the court will find the re-drawn maps constitutional either.

“You end up with the production of a base map, but done in a way that was sequestered from any possible political intent, and that’s how we arrived here,” said Rep. Jose Oliva/(R) Miami Lakes.

A Senate committee made changes to the base map during a committee meeting Monday that would reconfigure parts of Hillsborough County.
