Supreme Court halts Missouri's fresh GOP map, preserving the 2022 lineup
The U.S. Supreme Court blocked Missouri Secretary of State Denny Hoskins from using a newly drawn Republican congressional map for the 2026 elections, keeping the state on the 2022 map that would leave six GOP seats and two Democratic seats (including Emanuel Cleaver’s) intact. The emergency order, sought by the group People Not Politicians, pauses a federal judge’s ruling that the new map must be used, signaling an end to the lengthy map dispute for this cycle as ballots loom and the Trump administration backed Hoskins.
