Today, three federal judges out of El Paso blocked Donald Trump’s new congressional maps, which he ordered Greg Abbott to redraw. This federal panel has enjoined the state from using these new maps, instead ruining Donald Trump’s plan of netting 5 seats to keep harming the American people through his disastrous agenda.
“Today’s ruling out of El Paso reaffirmed our commitment to fair representation, and let us know that democracy can be preserved,” said Texas Democratic Party Chairman Kendall Scudder. “ThThis is a win for fair representation and proves what we have been saying, that these maps diminish the voting power of minorities.
When Donald Trump decided to take the fight to Texas, our House Members broke quorum and took this fight nationwide. As Republicans start to complain about California’s new map, I will remind them that California let its voters decide, something Greg Abbott would never do. We know this fight is far from over and that this will end up in front of the Supreme Court. The voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around. Let this be a message to Republicans: Don’t mess with Texas Democrats.”
