SB 117 Louisiana Senate · 2026 Regular Session

CONGRESS: Provides for the redistricting of Louisiana congressional districts. (See Act) (OR +$2,934,660 GF EX See Note)

SB 117 establishes the new geographic boundaries for Louisiana's six congressional districts, replacing the previous redistricting law. The bill defines precisely which precincts in each Louisiana parish belong to Districts 1 through 6, including detailed listings for parishes like Jefferson, Orleans, and St. Bernard. It directly affects Louisiana voters by determining which congressional district they reside in for U.S. House elections. The bill is procedural, focusing solely on defining district lines without altering voting rules or policy.
