United States Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon said Thursday that the Justice Department will enforce the Supreme Court's decision on gerrymandering districts in every state that has such a district.
The Supreme Court struck down two congressional maps in Louisiana Wednesday, ruling the state was unconstitutionally racially gerrymandering when it added a second majority black district. Louisiana redrew the maps in 2024 after a lower court ruled previous maps likely violated the Voting Rights Act because it did not include the second majority black district.
Missouri GOP Sen. Eric Schmitt asked the Justice Department earlier Thursday to enforce the Supreme Court ruling nationwide, noting it had the power to do so.
"Senator — we are ON IT!" Dhillon replied on X. "The [Justice Department] under [Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche] continues to prioritize equal protection of the laws for ALL Americans, be it in employment, housing, education — and voting."
The commitment comes as 45 redistricting disputes remain unresolved in federal and state courts, casting a cloud of legal uncertainty over the fight for control of the U.S. House of Representatives this November.

We have a team that finally feels like it’s playing to win.
With stars , question marks, odd shapes and polka dots allover the place districts ? LOL
“likely violated the Voting Rights Act”
judge: I’m not sure so I’ll just guess, weighting to the side that I like best
Here's looking at you Kalifornia!
Somebody needs to poke John Thune about it.
HARMEET IS SWEET
Few know that she was chair of the San Francisco GOP for a time.
Don’t give up on SF
Yeah, in the eye, the brown one, with a sharp stick.
The Dems are absolutely losing their minds. Expect violence.
Then they should enforce the Bruen decision and throw out all of the unconstitutional gun laws in every state.
Even the playing grounds.
Excellent! FORCE the RINOs in Georgia to draw up new maps rather than trying to get away with giving Democrats multiple seats like they’re doing now.
Amen
BLDM
or maybe
BLNLM
My first question is where will Illinois be on the list? All irregular shapes to congressional districts, looks like it was put together by carbon-based life-forms with hair colors not found in nature.
I hope they tackle Illinois districts. I live in one of them.
My neighbor has a different state representative than me.
Also, a different congressman. We live less than a mile apart in the middle of the county.
& New England. An entire region without a single Republican
Big time.
It would be nice if every black congressman was GOP. Problem is there would not be many of them. Perhaps we gotta recruit better.
