The Special Joint Committee on Redistricting will hold a virtual hearing for residents of the 4th Congressional District on Monday, July 19th at 12pm.

As a member of this Committee, State Representative Carole Fiola encourages any concerned citizens to participate. The drawing of new district boundaries will not begin until the Committee hears from all those who want to contribute to the process and once they can learn from their opinions.

The Special Joint Committee on Redistricting is studying and proposing a new division of the Commonwealth into 9 Congressional districts under the United States Constitution, 40 Senatorial and 8 Councilor districts under Section 2 of Article CI of the Amendments to the Constitution, as amended, and 160 Representative districts under section 1 of said Article CI.

New congressional and state legislative district boundaries are expected to be created meaning elected officials will have modifications to the areas they represent.
