Alabama GOP House Passes Redistricting 75–29 Amid Democratic Pushback & Evacuation Chaos

Alabama GOP House Passes Redistricting 75–29 Amid Democratic Pushback & Evacuation Chaos Democrats accused Republicans of pushing legislation that defies a court order. Their argument: Alabama is not supposed to redraw its congressional map again until 2030 unless the courts lift the restriction. That restriction comes after years of litigation over Alabama’s congressional map and Black voter representation. Federal courts previously ruled that Alabama’s map violated the Voting Rights Act by diluting Black voters’ political power. One Democratic lawmaker delivered the line that became the flashpoint: “The law and order party is sticking their mid*le finger up to the Supreme Court.” #AlabamaPolitics #Alabama #Redistricting #GOP #Republicans #Democrats #SupremeCourt #VotingRightsAct #CongressionalMaps #USPolitics #PoliticalDebate #Election2026
