The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in Louisiana v. Callais that Louisiana's congressional map — which created a second majority-Black district to comply with the Voting Rights Act — was an unconstitutional racial gerrymander. The ruling sharply narrows how the VRA can be used to require majority-minority districts, and Republicans are expected to redraw maps in several Southern states ahead of the midterms. Pompeo's framing as ending 'racial gerrymandering' skips the dissent's point: the map existed specifically to remedy past discrimination, and the three liberal justices argued the court gutted a law Congress chose to keep. Civil rights groups estimate the decision could cost Black voters representation in up to a half-dozen House seats.
