Late last night Texas legislature passed extreme gerrymandered US House maps Whites 40% population but control 60% districts Latinos 39% of population but control 18% districts Blacks 12% of population but control 0% districts Asians 5% of population but control 0% districts
If Dems don’t reform filibuster to pass Freedom to Vote Act, GOP will retake House through extreme gerrymandering & lock in anti-democratic power in states like Texas for next decade & beyond motherjones.com/politics/2021/…
@AriBerman Breaking news, US Senate also has insane maps. State of Wyoming with 2 Senators have the same amount of Senators as California despite having less than 2% of the population. Crazy huh?
@AriBerman I’m no mathematician, but who controls the other 22%?
