Mississippi governor says he will call special session to redraw district maps after SCOTUS ruling

Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves announced plans to call a special legislative session to redraw district maps following the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in Louisiana v. Callais, a case challenging a majority-Black congressional district as an unconstitutional racial gerrymander. The decision could reshape redistricting nationwide, particularly in Republican-led states, and impact a Mississippi lawsuit alleging voting rights violations against Black voters.
