GOP members in California filed a federal lawsuit this Wednesday, challenging a significant redistricting initiative that could shift as many as five congressional seats to the benefit of Democrats.
This initiative, Proposition 50, was approved by the electorate Tuesday night, representing a clear win for the Democratic side.

This action is a direct response to gerrymandering in the state of Texas, where GOP lawmakers, following the US president's direction, have carved out several new safe Republican districts.
