Shaff Plan
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Shaff Plan was a proposed amendment to the Iowa Constitution, proposed by David Shaff. The amendment would have called for the Iowa Senate to be apportioned by population, and the Iowa House of Representatives to be apportioned by area. In December 1963, in a public referendum, the amendment was rejected. In February 1964, two reapportionment bills were passed. They would later be declared unconstitutional, with respect to the Supreme Court decision in Reynolds v. Sims.
