Indiana's redistricting is about to get officially underway. At its core, it determines which state House and Senate and Congressional district every Hoosier lives in.

Hoosiers will get their first look Tuesday at the state's political future for the next decade as state lawmakers unveil state House and Congressional district maps, the first step in redistricting.

They are slated to release on Tuesday proposed congressional and Indiana House maps drawn behind closed doors, with a timeline for final approval in about three weeks.

Indiana faith leaders say that Republican lawmakers drawing unfair legislative maps would be "sin." Gerrymandering, they argue, is "political and theological idolatry."

Advocates for redistricting reform hope the Indiana Citizens Redistricting Commission and similar efforts elsewhere can draw public attention to partisan gerrymandering and pressure the real mapmakers to temper their political inclinations.

Hoosiers have a chance to win money for drawing "fair" legislative district maps. It's part of a contest by the redistricting reform advocacy group All IN For Democracy.

Redistricting reform advocates aren’t happy about the national Republican lawyer the Indiana House GOP hired to consult on redistricting.

Dozens of Hoosiers told state lawmakers what they want to see in new legislative maps at a Statehouse hearing on redistricting Wednesday.

Republican leaders Wednesday threw cold water on calls for another round of public hearings across the state on redistricting once lawmakers unveil proposed legislative maps.

Redistricting reform advocates rallied outside the Statehouse Wednesday with a clear message for lawmakers – draw competitive legislative maps in an open, transparent way.
