Governor Tony Evers is calling lawmakers back to Madison to ban partisan gerrymandering.
The Democratic governor signed an executive order yesterday for a special session to be held beginning April 14th.
Gov. Evers wants to see a constitutional amendment passed that doesn’t allow gerrymandering, although the amendment wouldn’t specify how to draw electoral maps.
Lieutenant Governor Sara Rodriguez and both Democratic legislative leaders were absent for yesterday’s announcement.
It’s unclear if the idea has any support from either side of the aisle.
