Governor Kim Reynolds this week could approve new redistricting plans approved by lawmakers in last week’s special session. The new maps establish political boundaries for the next 10 years.
The Senate approved the plan 48-to-1 with one senator absent; the House approved it 93-to-2.
In the new House District 6, Republican Representative Megan Jones, who lives north of Sioux Rapids, will live in the same district as Republican Representative Gary Worthan, who lives north of Storm Lake. Representative Worthan has indicated he will not seek re-election once the redistricting goes into effect. That will happen with the November, 2022 general election.
