The governor turned down two measures aimed at mandating independent redistricting for Los Angeles. But the City Council is pushing ahead with such a plan.
Gov. Gavin Newsom has vetoed two overlapping bills that would have forced large California cities to establish independent redistricting commissions by 2030, citing potential unbudgeted costs. Newsom's move came as members of the Los Angeles City Council continue to push forward a plan to implement independent redistricting for the city.
Durazo and Bryan said in a joint statement that they were 'disappointed' by Newsom's decision to veto the bills, writing that 'an independent and unbiased commission' is needed 'to help mend the lack of trust between the community and its government' in Los Angeles. Los Angeles' current redistricting process, which gives council members final say over their own district boundaries, has been under extreme scrutiny in recent months.
