Texas Senate Democrats will speak Wednesday morning on their efforts to fight redistricting across the country that they argue are “attempts to rig” congressional maps ahead of the 2026 midterms.
The group, who will be joined by other Democratic lawmakers, fled to Massachusetts, Illinois and New York earlier this week to avoid voting on a new GOP-proposed map in the Lone Star State.
Republicans are looking to pick up at least five House seats in next year’s election, which President Trump said they are “entitled” to.
The Democrats’ latest remarks also come on the 60th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act.
The press conference in Boston is scheduled to begin at 10:30 a.m. EDT.
