Trump-Requested Texas Congressional District Gerrymandering Blocked by Federal Court Panel
In June, President Donald Trump asked Texas to redistrict and deliver five additional congressional seats before the 2026 midterm, igniting a multi-state gerrymandering arms race. Nov. 18th, a federal court ruling halted the new districts and said “substantial evidence shows that Texas racially gerrymandered the 2025 Map.”
