Supreme Court Hears Louisiana Redistricting Challenge
The U.S. Supreme Court is currently deliberating over Louisiana's redrawn congressional map, which includes two Black-majority districts, a change mandated by a lower court to address racial gerrymandering concerns. Plaintiffs argue that the new map still violates the Voting Rights Act by being drawn primarily on racial lines. Conversely, state officials contend that the map complies with judicial directives aimed at increasing Black representation. The court's decision could significantly influence the balance of power in Congress, as it follows a recent election where Republicans secured four of six House seats under the new map. The justices appear divided on the case, with some hinting at potentially limiting future Voting Rights Act challenges. A ruling is anticipated by June, which may force further changes to the electoral map ahead of the 2024 elections.
