圣贝纳迪诺县选区重划改走独立委员会，2030年普查后启用
一项新的州法 SB 1414 将改变圣贝纳迪诺县未来的选区划分方式：由14名圣贝纳迪诺县居民组成的独立委员会决定选区边界，最终决定权不再掌握在民选官员手里。
这项由州参议员 Eloise Gómez Reyes 提出的法案，将取代2020年 Measure J 设立的公民顾问模式。现行模式下，委员会只向县政委员会提建议；新法改为独立委员会直接定版，但要等到2030年人口普查结果出炉后才真正启用。
支持者说，这样能减少「政客挑选民」的空间；反对者包括部分地方工会与县政委员会主席 Dawn Rowe，他们批评这是州政府干预地方事务，也推翻了选民2020年通过的安排。距离实际重划还有几年，争议会围绕委员资格、遴选程序和透明度继续展开。（资料来源：KVCR）
San Bernardino County Redistricting Moves to Independent Commission After 2030 Census
A new state law, SB 1414, will change how San Bernardino County draws future election districts: an independent commission of 14 county residents will decide the boundaries, removing final authority from elected officials.
Authored by state Sen. Eloise Gómez Reyes, the law overrides the advisory model created by Measure J in 2020, under which a citizen commission advises the Board of Supervisors. The new commission's work would take effect after the next census in 2030.
Backers say voters should choose their representatives, not the other way around. Critics, including Teamsters Local 1932 and Board Chair Dawn Rowe, say the law disregards a voter-approved process and reflects state overreach into local government. With years before the next redistricting, debate is likely to focus on eligibility, selection, and transparency. (Source: KVCR.)
