This is HUGE, Sula! The Department of Justice has filed its first lawsuit of the 2021 redistricting cycle, taking on Texas' gerrymandered maps. According to The Times, the Justice Department is arguing that those maps "would essentially make ballots cast by Black and Latino voters count for less than those of others."
Attorney General Garland's announcement was a critical step in the fight against gerrymandering, and he restated on Monday that the Justice Department would "use all available authorities and resources to continue protecting the right to vote."
Thanks,
