Topic:  Reapportionment.  John McCabe will discuss legislative reapportionment in Illinois, its State Constitution framework, and the Federal requirements on the reapportionment process.  Also discussed will be the first ever reapportionment of the Illinois Judicial Districts and its potential impact.  Take a look at the once-every ten years process that is the ultimate legislative “inside baseball” that there is.
