Kentucky House and Senate lawmakers have a tentative agreement on a congressional redistricting plan that appears to have broken a nearly month-long impasse.

House Speaker Greg Stumbo says the plan is expected to pass the legislature in coming days.

Redistricting occurs every ten years to account for population changes reported in the U.S. Census.

The latest count found the state's overall population grew from four million to 4.3 million from 2000 to 2010.

Lawmakers have to pass a plan that puts an equal number of people in each of the state's districts.
