House Bill No. by Representative Jordan establishes a new section, Part I-B of Chapter 5 of Title 18 of the Louisiana Revised Statutes, specifically addressing the legislative redistricting website for the 2026 election cycle. The bill mandates that the legislature must provide, maintain, and update a redistricting website, which may be the same as the one outlined in existing law (R.S. 24:992). The website is required to include various types of information, such as documents presented at redistricting public hearings, materials related to redistricting from legislative committee hearings, public testimony, legislative instruments with redistricting plans, and third-party analyses regarding compliance with redistricting criteria and laws.

In addition to the existing requirements, the proposed law expands the information that must be made available on the redistricting website during the 2026 election cycle. This includes specific details about legislative instruments and mapping files related to redistricting plans, as well as analyses conducted by third parties. The bill is set to take effect upon the governor's signature or after the expiration of the time for bills to become law without the governor's signature.
