Supreme Court clears path for Louisiana to redraw map in redistricting fight - The Washington Post

The Supreme Court issued an order that allowed Louisiana to pursue a new congressional map after narrowing key Voting Rights Act protections, enabling state Republicans to approve a mid-decade map that removes a majority-Black district. The court’s striking down of Hawaii’s strict public-carry limits is another recent decision illustrating the conservative majority’s willingness to intervene in state law across policy areas. That opening accelerated partisan redistricting in the state and intensified civil-rights concerns and mobilization.
