This resolution condemns mid-decade congressional redistricting in Texas. It says the redistricting was racist and unconstitutional and was ordered by President Donald J. Trump. The resolution claims the changes would target districts where people of color elect candidates of their choice and could help Republicans keep control of the House. It was introduced and referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.
The resolution expresses the House’s position. Its text does not change district lines or voting rules.
