Tonight, the Supreme Court stayed the ruling enjoining the use of the congressional map enacted in 2025 in the 2026 midterm elections in the case of LULAC v. Abbott.
The Supreme Court failed to reach the right result in its decision to stay the district court’s well-reasoned opinion enjoining the use of the congressional map Texas enacted in 2025 while the case of LULAC v. Abbott proceeds. The district court heard evidence on this map for nine days and found overwhelming, clear, and direct evidence of unconstitutional racial gerrymandering. The district court’s order to use the map Texas enacted in 2021—the congressional map currently in effect—while the case moves through the courts is the most practical and fair path forward at this time.
As Justice Kagan explained in her dissent, the order ‘disrespects the work of a District Court that did everything one could ask to carry out its charge—that put aside every consideration except getting the issue before it right…[and] disserves the millions of Texans whom the District Court found were assigned to their new districts based on their race. [T]his Court’s precedents and our Constitution demand better.’
The Texas map that the Supreme Court has now permitted to go into effect for the 2026 elections betrays the fundamental principle that all Texans should have a say in our government. I will continue to work to empower the citizens who are standing up for that principle in this case and elsewhere, and I will continue to work in all the ways I can to ensure that we have fair maps and fair representation in Texas.
And one of the ways we do that is by winning at the ballot box every single race we can next November. I’m completely committed to doing everything I can to make sure this racist redistricting plan backfires, and that Texas Democrats win back these seats and more.
Together we can do anything,
