The Pennsylvania Legislative Redistricting Commission released draft State House and State Senate maps and we've got grades.
Importantly, these maps are now subject to 30 days of public comment, after which adjustments can be made and another vote will be held.

First up is the State House map. It gets a C overall and in Partisan Fairness, with an F in Competitiveness and a B in Geography.
We'd anticipate somewhere in the neighborhood of 102 Democratic leaning seats, a bare majority in the chamber.

Note that our grading system penalizes a map that gets an F in Competitiveness by lowering the Partisan Fairness score by 1 letter. So this map has a B in Partisan Fairness, but deflated by low competition. It has 17 competitive seats and it would take 25 to get a C.
