No it isn't. All the Constitution says about congressional districting is: "The House of Representatives shall be composed of Members chosen every second Year by the People of the several States, and the Electors in each State shall have the Qualifications requisite for Electors of the most numerous Branch of the State Legislature." (Article 1, Section 2, Clause 1).
14th Amendment. Equal Protection Clause.
Exactly. @Rightguide points fingers at Democrats while supporting Republican racial gerrymandering in Texas.
So the answer is to vote in the commission and make it part of primaries.
There's no "answer" that can be written in a law or verdict. Voters must set their own limits of what they will tolerate. Politicians will always push the limits until voters push back.
Someone dislikes gerrymandering too
But they cannot be race based.
You dont see color
The case before the court is about race-based gerrymandering by Democrats who see everything through the prism of color.You dont see color
Lol
Actually, it was the Republicans who began the push to maximize the number of majority-minority districts, because that would lead to all the other districts in those states being whiter and more Republican. Nice try though.
Based on race? It's clearly unconstitutional.
That's what the VRA was intended to address in the first place: decades of gerrymandering to keep POC out of power.
Of course not. But there's nothing racist about putting a stop to deliberately diluting the strength of communities comprised primarily of people of color. There is plenty that's racist about not doing that.
Oh, you've met plenty of us. You're just seeing us through your prism of bigotry.
Show us how they did this.
They benefited hugely when years ago they started this practice in California to gain twelve additional House seats.
Neither have I. And yes, the woke liberals really do think it's a good thing for the government to engage in racism.
