You can find the Senate's draft maps and supporting documents here. Look at "member-submitted maps" – there are six (5 Congressional and 1 State Senate).  

At this time, we do not believe the House will be producing its own version of Congressional maps.  

Also, it appears that the House will combine its hearings with those of the Senate as shown above.

Common Cause has posted an analysis of the draft maps done by Dave’s Redistricting to its website. View it here.
