NAACP files lawsuit against Texas over new congressional map​

A lawsuit was filed against Texas by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) over the new congressional map that recently passed through the state legislature, arguing that it discriminates against voters of color and violates the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Tex-ass is being sued AGAIN. They WILL lose.

There were no majority black US House districts in Texas prior to the new map, but the new map creates two.

The new map would increase the number of majority-Hispanic districts from seven to eight and create two majority-Black districts where there were none before, per demographic data provided by the Texas Legislative Council.

True, but from the same source:

• Yes, but: Many districts labeled majority Latino on paper may not translate into real voting power, since census counts include noncitizens, Kareem Crayton, with the Brennan Center for Justice, tells Axios.
• The number of districts without a clear majority racial group drops from nine to four, reducing areas where multiracial coalitions once played a decisive role, Crayton adds.
