House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis exchange sharp words over the state's impending redistricting battle. Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., joins 'Fox News Live' to weigh in.

The Supreme Court handed down a victory for the Republican Party on Monday, striking down a lower court's ruling that had blocked Texas' plans for redrawing its congressional districts.

As expected, Supreme Court officially greenlights Texas’ gerrymandered congressional map for midterms

The U.S. Supreme Court sewed up the loose ends of its earlier 6-3 decision to allow Texas’s mid-decade congressional redistricting Monday, issuing a summary reversal of a trial court’s ruling blocking the map. 

After Texas heeded President Donald Trump’s call for Republican-led states to maximize their partisan advantages ahead of the 2026 midterms, the state was sued by pro-voting groups who argued the new maps intentionally diluted minority voting power in violation of the Voting Rights Act and the 14th and 15th Amendments. A panel of federal judges blocked the redraw in November with a scathing opinion written by Judge Jeffrey Brown, a Trump appointee.

Supreme Court allows Texas' redrawn congressional map to stand for 2026 elections

AUSTIN, Texas — The U.S. Supreme Court reversed a lower court ruling on Monday that had blocked Texas from using its redrawn congressional map, allowing the redistricting plan to remain in place for the 2026 elections.

The court's order in Abbott v. LULAC was a summary reversal, meaning the justices overturned the district court's judgment. Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented.

A three-judge federal panel had blocked the new map in November, finding that plaintiffs were likely to succeed in proving the state had engaged in racial gerrymandering.
