Rep. Jimmy Dixon appointed to key NC House Redistricting Committee

Last week, Speaker Tim Moore appointed NC House Representative Jimmy Dixon to serve on the North Carolina House Select Committee on Redistricting, a key legislative body responsible for overseeing the state’s redistricting process for the 2025–2026 legislative session.

The 15-member committee, established on Oct. 14, will oversee the state’s redistricting efforts ahead of the 2026 election cycle and is tasked with evaluating, drafting, and recommending changes to North Carolina’s legislative and congressional district maps.

As a longtime legislator, Dixon is one of nine Republicans on the committee. “Duplin has a good seat at this decision-making table,” he told the Duplin Journal. The work of this committee will play a central role in shaping the state’s political landscape ahead of the 2026 elections.

The committee will submit a final report by May 1, 2026, and has the authority to propose new legislative maps and engage consultants to support its work.
