Maryland Legislature to Seek Constitutional Amendment for 2028 Redistricting

Maryland is preparing for congressional redistricting ahead of the 2028 elections. A special legislative session is scheduled for next month. Lawmakers plan to propose an amendment to the state constitution. The amendment is intended to protect new congressional maps. Officials hope the change will make maps resilient to legal challenges. The move follows concerns about past map litigation. If approved, the amendment would embed redistricting rules in the constitution. Observers will watch how the change influences future elections.
