Senate Rules Committee To Hold Hearing on Presidential Primary Timing Bill

On September 19, the U.S. Senate Rules Committee will hold a hearing on S1257, the bill to tell the states and the major parties when to hold their presidential primaries and caucuses. The bill only applies to parties that won any electoral votes in the preceding presidential election. It lets Iowa and New Hampshire go first, in perpetuity. The other 48 states would be grouped into 4 regions, and a random procedure would choose which region holds primaries and caucuses in March, which in April, which in May, and which in June.
