The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:(a) California voters approved the Voters FIRST Act in 2008 and the Voters FIRST Act for Congress in 2010, which together established the Citizens Redistricting Commission and made the commission responsible for adjusting the boundary lines of the congressional, State Senatorial, Assembly, and Board of Equalization districts based on the federal decennial census and in conformity with standards set forth in both the federal and state constitutions.(b) The commission is required to conduct an open and transparent process enabling full public consideration of and comment on the drawing of district lines.
