9:18Now PlayingDespite minorities driving Texas' growth, lawmakers have proposed a new congressional map that reduces the number of districts in which people of color make up the majority of voters. In essence, they are stealing power from Black and Brown voters.
Now, 15 states have proposed new congressional maps that will significantly impact state and federal elections. That number of states is expected to grow, with 28 states having deadlines to approve new congressional maps that stretch well into 2022.
Meagan Hatcher-Mays, director of democracy policy for the Indivisible Project, joins Charles Blow on “Prime” to discuss the rise in states redrawing congressional maps.
All this and more on “Prime.”
