Alabama's congressional map hinges on US Supreme Court

Alabama Governor Kay Ivey has signed legislation mandating special primary elections for U.S. House districts if federal courts permit the state to use congressional district lines approved by its legislature in 2023. Similar legislation for state Senate districts was also enacted. The state is urging the U.S. Supreme Court to allow the use of its 2023 congressional map, which it contends was based on lawful policy goals, not race.
