Judges reject Alabama's new congressional district map after lawmakers exclude 2nd Black majority district
Fox News
Federal judges for a U.S. District Court in Alabama ruled against state lawmakers and rejected their congressional district that only included one Black-majority district.
In their ruling, the three-judge panel for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Alabama said they were "deeply troubled" that the state's newly drawn congressional map did not adhere to their guidance and that a third attempt would have to be redrawn by a special master.
Alabama is expected to appeal Tuesday’s decision to the U.S. Supreme Court.
