Louisiana Family Forum Action today has unveiled our non-partisan proposal for re-districting the Louisiana Congressional Lines after the 2010 Census.

“The plan was circulated to legislators and media outlets throughout Louisiana as a starting point for discussion on how the congressional lines should be re-drawn,” said Gene Mills, President of LFF Action.

“It is expected that Louisiana will lose a congressional seat after the 2010 census. Our plan takes that likelihood into consideration, combining the current District Three and District Two Seats to reflect the large population loss from Hurricane Katrina,” said Mills.

“The remaining five districts remain basically unchanged and give continuity to Louisiana's historical districts, while maintaining a majority 'minority district',” he said.
