Alabama asks Supreme Court to temporarily block order to redraw congressional maps
Fox News
Alabama has sent a request to the Supreme Court asking for a delay in a lower court order to proceed with drawing new congressional maps ahead of the 2022 election.
A three-judge federal judicial panel on Thursday had refused to delay enforcement of its order, despite the state indicating it would appeal. That panel had concluded the current map drawn based on the 2020 census figures likely violates the Voting Rights Act by diluting the voting power of minority voters.
