"Gov. Bill Lee called the special session at the request of President Donald Trump who wanted congressional districts redrawn after the U.S. Supreme Court gutted a key provision in the 1965 Voting Rights Act.
Republican lawmakers admitted the redistricting was done for political purposes to give the GOP a 9-0 sweep of the state’s congressional seats and provide Trump another vote at the midterm election to back his policies."

She called it the “most brazen attack on Black political representation this nation has seen since Jim Crow,” done quickly to “steal” a House seat so Trump could “continue evading punishment for his crimes.”
