The Supreme Court will ultimately decide whether to uphold the longstanding principle that grants citizenship to the children of non-citizens born in the U.S., following a legal challenge by the Trump administration.

The Supreme Court is allowing the challenged Texas congressional redistricting plan to be used in next year’s election, despite a lower-court ruling that the map likely discriminates on the basis of race.

The court’s conservative majority said that Texas’ asserted political motives justified letting the state use voting maps meant to disadvantage Democrats in the midterms.

Voters in Texas' 18th Congressional District now face two elections under two different maps after the U.S. Supreme Court reinstated the state's mid-decade redistricting plan.

President Trump has led the charge to create more GOP-friendly congressional districts in the 2026 midterm elections.
