About this listen

In this episode of House Rules, Rep. Candice Pierucci joins Sen. Scott Sandall to discuss the recent court ruling that struck down Utah’s congressional maps and set a new redistricting process in motion.

As the new chairs of the Redistricting Committee, they reflect on the 2018 ballot initiative, the compromise that followed, and the hundreds of hours of public hearings that shaped the 2021 maps. They explain why the legislature is complying under protest, what the 30-day timeline means, and how lawmakers plan to balance rural and urban representation while pursuing appeals that may reach the Utah and U.S. Supreme Courts.
