Independent Rep. Kiley moves to force vote to ban midcycle redistricting

Rep. Kevin Kiley introduced a discharge petition to force a House vote on his bill banning midcycle redistricting, which could become a recurring partisan weapon if left unchecked. The bill would prohibit states from redrawing congressional maps more than once every 10 years. Kiley's move is an attempt to bypass House leadership and force legislation onto the floor.
