Legal Defense Fund Condemns Ruling Upholding Tennessee Congressional Map

Original: LDF Condemns Federal Court’s Order to Uphold Tennessee's Racially Discriminatory Congressional Map

The Legal Defense Fund has condemned a federal court order allowing Tennessee's congressional map to stand, calling the map racially discriminatory. The civil rights organisation argues the redistricting plan dilutes the voting power of Black Tennesseans, and the decision deals a setback to voting rights advocates who had challenged the map in court.

Why now: The ruling has renewed national debate over racial gerrymandering and voting rights in the courts.
