Texas Governor Greg Abbott responded to a recent decision by the United States Supreme Court that allows Texas to use its 2025 congressional redistricting maps. The court’s ruling restores the maps approved by state lawmakers.
Governor Abbott commented on the outcome, stating: “We won! Texas is officially—and legally—more red. The U.S. Supreme Court restored the redistricting maps passed by Texas that were based on constitutional principles and Supreme Court precedent. The new congressional districts better align our representation in Washington D.C. with the values of our state. This is a victory for Texas voters, for common sense, and for the U.S. Constitution.”
The ruling follows ongoing debates over how legislative districts are drawn in Texas, which have implications for political representation at the federal level.
