Supreme Court Denies Alabama's Request for Revised Voting Map
TL;DR Summary
The Supreme Court has rejected Alabama's request to reinstate a congressional map drawn by Republican lawmakers that had only one majority-Black district. The court's decision paves the way for a new map to be put in place before the 2024 election. The lower court had previously found that Alabama had disregarded its directive to create a second majority-Black district. The outcome of the dispute could impact the balance of power in the House, where Republicans hold a slim majority.
