BREAKING: The Supreme Court handed Republicans a major victory Monday by striking down a lower court ruling that had blocked Texas from moving forward with plans to redraw its congressional districts.
• The Court said its decision was based on reasoning from a previous case, Abbott v. League of United Latin American Citizens, though it did not provide further explanation.
• Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented from the ruling.
• The decision gives Texas officials the green light to proceed with the contested redistricting effort, marking a significant political and legal win for the GOP.
